Any way to tell the difference between a FB and a FB-A? Up here most any small or medium sized farmer has been living on a line of credit since the 2003 BSE scare. Price of beef in the stores has stayed the same but the farm price is still below 1985 prices.With the extra profits the packing plants are buying out small operations and merging them into corporate operations. No body small has any money and there is little demand for just a 17 x 7" seed drill on 1000+ acre operations. The Canadian dollar is much better than it's peso status of 63 cents US a few years ago. Something around 85 cents US or so now.

On the Van Brunt we use to have, when you stood on the footboard, the model # was stamped on the back of the grass seed box, I think on the left end, between the grass and grain boxes.

I must be unable to see the forest for the trees? The grain and fertilizer lids are green, the grass seeders are in front of the grain box and made of galvanized metal. Dual mechanical lift and an individual fertilizer spinner for each row. It's rubber tired but older than a photo of a FB-B I've seen. I can read almost all of the original label/planting rates and even the document's ID number.
