Well, the corn planter is attached now.  It was repaired during the winter, so now all it needs is some corn put the two big gray boxes.  We would estimate using this early next week!

Hitching up to the CIH 1250, 24-row corn planter

Many wires and hoses, and even a hydraulic pump make the connection to the MX 290 tractor.

We have about 90 acres of nitrogen yet to apply, and of course, the sprayer needs to run soon.  The soybean drill will also go to the field on the next day when the fields are dry enough.

Also ready, with seed loaded, is the soybean air drill.

It won’t be long now!
