Farm Progress
Does this sound like you? You aren’t ready to buy a new planter, but you want to boost yields and profit by investing in your current planter. It boils down to this: What should you invest in first?
The obvious answer is an equipment add-on, such as some type of seed meter or something besides rubber closing wheels. But when this question was posed to agronomists and farmers, some insisted the best investment would be replacing worn parts first. Once you are satisfied the planter is in top shape, look at other options.
