IH 56 4-row corn planter

Have to know where you want to be, to know how to get there. :)

Good corn will use 150 (or more) - 50 - 50 pretty much, but some of that might be in your soil already, or you might be aiming for a lower yield. Any you really can't put that much N on as starter, so try to meet the P & K needs, and some of the N.

Unless your going to count the number of seeds dropped and amount of fertlizer used in lets say a 100 ft and and repeat until you get the desired settings you need a manual.

I got one a few years directly from IHCase. Gives you all the different seed populations per acre for different row with's and in row spacings for all the available options.

For Fertlizer It gives you the part numbers of the fertlizer augers and rates appleid with the different augers and sprocket settings.

Also, this is a plate type planter which means you need to match the corn seed size to the plates used in the planter. If you need plates Lincon Ag Plates has them.
