No till drills

[farmguy]

I would like to purchase a used no till drill. I would only be doing 100 acres or so a year. I know International and JD makes a no till drill. What are the model numbers? It would help when looking on the internet or ads. Thanks

Any single disk grain drill will do a good job planting most seeds for pasture over seeding. Most no till drills plant the seed to deep.

They plant too deep only if not properly adjusted.
My preference is a Haybuster 107 with the additioanl small seed box.

I totally agree with Dun on this.

750 1560 1590 are the John Deere drills. 5400 is the only International drill I know about.

Question I am looking at a 15 foot 3 point Tye drill. Will my 1086 handle it? Thanks

I'm going to say no unless you have duals on it. I have a 7 footer on a 2955 and wouldn't want any more weigh back their.

What is the weight on it? A 10 is a big heavy tractor

I borrowed a Tye to run once and hated the thing. The seed adjustment was difficult and imprecise (just changing a gap where they fall through to the tube and nothing in the seed box to agitate them or anything) had lots of problems with tubes clogging and never did get it adjusted like I wanted

Used a 10' great plains drill this week. It worked well and adjustment were a little tricky but it did the job. It was a definite load on my tractor
