These field videos are the best! Thanks and keep them coming, please.

A follow-up video for this would be interesting to see what the harvest numbers were at.

Why do you have the Syngenta logo on your website??? Syngenta, third largest seed supplier in the world, is owned by China National Agrochemical Corp., a subsidiary of ChemChina. ChemChina, a Chinese military company, was placed on the U.S. Department of Defense Section 889 list of banned entities in 2022. There is more. If you are interested there is a great deal of info on this in the public domain. So much for Sino-U.S. "decoupling" of critical technologies!

So amazing 😘

I'd love to see someone try 36-40" old school wide rows. I think we're leaving a lot on 60" up to that cover establishment and any gap is going to bring increased weed pressure. Plus the missing rows going into a corn head just sorta makes me twitch, it's not great to run chains unloaded slapping around and unequal gearbox loading comes to mind. 30 and narrower for conventional systems, 60in if you have a heavy cover emphasis, but the ugly step child 38s might be the next thing i start field trials on

I’m waiting for a row planter than can drill the cc on either side of the crop row? Save you a second pass with a drill or vice versa. This would make a dynamite food plot matrix.

Depends on species and crop I suppose but if the goal was burn down and plant both in one pass, then that would be slick. Some slower starting stuff I've seeded ahead of the planter, and more dry season tolerant stuff broadcast after planting. I haven't been real fond of the extra disturbance caused by adding 2-3 drill row units in the midrow with some of the setups I've seen. We are in a high erosion highly sloped area so that pushes some of the thought to lower disturbance methods.

​@@scottschaeffer8920Amity out of North Dakota was working on a row unit that could put your corn down on 30 in and then a cover crop and either side or fertilizer on one side and cover on the other or fertilizer on both and then you could take that same unit in season and put down a mix of covers and fertilizer. I don't know if they ever brought into Market

The crop adjuster doesn't need to know nothing. LOL I am not too worried about weeds. In the past I've done a good burn down with a good residual. And then come in later with the cover crop mix. Next year I will eliminate Roundup and eliminate the residual herbicide and just do a simple burn down of the Rye and then bring in the cover crops.

Corn Seed spacing within the row on 60 inch rows???? Dennis

Probably 3-4 " apart.... twin rows on 60" would be better as that would maintain the same plant spacing as 30" rows but we are not set up for that

Where is the planting drill found? I have modified planting a bit by plugging grain drills BUT no modifications that extreme. Dennis
