Two Row Corn Planter
 ✖  |
I'm sending along a photo of our 2-row no-till corn planter which we built using odd parts from various Massey Ferguson 4 and 6-row no-till planters. Older MF planters have interchangeable parts so we were able to mix and match as needed. There are two fertilizer hoppers up front with seed hoppers trailing behind. A hydraulic top link from the tractor to an upright "mast" at the front of the planter provides down pressure to cut through residue. Foster Equipment Co. of Geneva donated the parts and Fred Norton Welding Co. of Rock Creek did the engineering and welding. I furnished the desire for such a planter for small acreage farmers.
