Had an old 4x30 planter till the mid 70's. Dad bought an allis 6x30 plante. Had it about 3or 4 years, and he got an old IH 58 8x30 planter we were big time then. Most guys were still using 4 row planters around here. What always amazed me was the difference from 6 to eight rows. Seemed like it planted so much faster than a 6 row. Yet the difference didn't seem like much from 4 to 6 rows. Back when we first got the 8 row planter, we had dairy cows and all us kids were in school. Dad taught school so the labor was replaced with equipment size. As we got out of school, and the cows disappeared the equipment could stay the same size, and still get done. I thought I planted the world back in the early 80's. Planted a hundred acres with 8 row air planter, moved 3 times filled the planter with 2 5 gallon pails, and went the 3 miles to get fertilizer for the planter by myself before dark. Started after chores that day.
