Gordo, the guys with a million dollars worth of planting equipment have a heck of a lot more headaches than we do. In order to support that size equipment they have to cover big acres which means satisfying many landlords and farm managers wanting big rents. They have to push the limits and plant when conditions aren't right to keep the landlords satisfied. And when they fall they fall farther and harder.
I used to plant my farm with a 6 row. Then I had it custom planted by a neighbor with a 16 row. Then he went to 24, then 36 rows.
