Tractor/ planter matchup

widetread · May 11, 2013

Do you think a 60 John Deere would be able to handle a 6 row planter in 4th gear?

Cooney Minnie · May 11, 2013

Probably not.

But what planter, does it have fertilizer on it, in what conditions, etc?

It is a older Kinze with just seed boxes.

I think it will. after all it cant pull any harder then a plow. Bob

Not in the Hills!

Fertilizer?

That is a lot of weight.

Maybe, Better have the tractor weighted down good front and rear are you may have the crookes row in the county.

We pull a 6 row Kinze no-till with a 4320 Compact JD 50 hp and a hydro. The hydro takes a lot of hp away. but it pulls it 5 mph just fine. I think a fresh 60 will be fine.
