I have been back and forth with the dream of a no till drill (Kasco etc.) but the reality is- it's a lot of money. I broadcast seed now. But I broadcast 3 acres of soybeans last week and I don't know what it is, I just hate broadcasting seed. The uncertainty, waste, it's just not "fun." Depending on acreage I either use my hand broadcaster and walk (which totally sucks when planting two acres of clover), or use my Land Pride poly hopper like I did for soybeans. I would like a drill to do what I needats, corn, clover, brassica, soybeans, maybe sunflowers, alfalfa, chicory, switchgrass. OK, so I've come to terms that I will probably give up corn; I have a Deere Flexi planter that works fine, but it's single row...ugh. Soooo, supposing I keep the Deere for corn, is there a good used 6 to 8' "grain drill" that will serve my needs? I go on Tractorhouse, there's just so many choices I'm confused, so I'm looking for advice on specific brands/models. Would rather buy used due to cost. Thank you.
