Planting Corn in Illinois | John Deere 8RX Tractor pulling Stack-fold Planters

[@chrisgossman6512]

Thanks, Mike. The sink rate on the tractor with the tank made it look like the tracks were still, and the tractor was gliding across the field.

[@FarmGearInnovators]

The drone shots of both tractors planting and meeting in the middle (16:05) were awesome! 🚜✨ That teamwork gets fields done in no time.

Great planting team. Almost every farmer here in East Central Louisiana have 3pt. Mounted and stackfold planters. Most of the crops here are planted on raised beds.

[@Hinesfarm-Indiana]

Oh yeah a warm weather throw back video 👍👍🌽🌽

[@ScottPykare]

The mounted planters are definitely easier to maneuver. Don't have the ability to hold a lot of seed though. Plus's and minu's with everything. Great video Mike.

[@tricage]

I really like how consistent you've been when it comes to posting good videos

[@JimBirch-ps2qx]

Awesome stuff, again,

[@video4sissies]

8RX + planter has got to be one of the most beautiful modern pieces of machinery.

Great 8RX planting. Where are they planting today 😁?

[@Hinesfarm-Indiana]

😆😆😆😆

[@farmhandmike]

If I was a betting man I'd say in the machinery shed.

[@DonaldSeverson-mg7ep]

Sheffield, Illinois Greg!

[@bigtractorpower]

@@farmhandmike just needed to get that question out of the way so no one else would ask 🥶🤣

[@Hinesfarm-Indiana]

They may need to put a snow plow on the tractor haha 😆

[@kurtsmith8]

Mike how come they plant end rows or headlands first and then drive on them turning around while they’re planting? Seems that would create unwanted compaction? It seems that I remember when doing tillage, you do your long passes and then go around the field to the exit so that you’re not creating any compassion. I am not a experienced farmer, just very interested since my grandfather was a farmer, and I used to do a lot of tractor work for him.

[@farmhandmike]

Working ground true but planting most guys plant the ends so they know where to pick up and set down the planters. With GPS technology I'm sure you could set field boundaries and accurately plant the end rows last. Now you may have noticed they are setting the planter down in the already planted end rows but most new planters won't start dropping seed until it hits the field in the right spot. (auto row shut off)

[@agger838]

​@farmhandmike that's correct. The ability to plant endrows last with gps precision is fairly new to the monitors and not many use it because no one trusts it yet lol. Skips are ugly

[@tractorchasers]

Awesome planting team! Did I miss, how fast are they planting?

[@sew1194]

About 10 mph

[@outbackladas]

How many acres an hour are they planting at?

[@corlehomesteadfarms920]

I wonder if they see a different in the corn between the kinze and John Deere planter. I know our kinze never did as good of a job as our John Deere.

[@noehueber6602]
