You will be very happy with the job a 7000 planter does. There is plenty of aftermarket parts and lots of attachments to suit them for your crop and soil conditions. We have a 7200 4 row wide planter for corn and also a 7000 4 row narrow for soybeans. The 7000 was a standard frame wide row planter that we had cut down for 30 inch rows. Any good welding shop can do it as you cut off the axle brackets and move them in and cut the axle to shorten it on each side and you can also cut some off each end of the frame to make it smaller.The Amish shops in my area cut dozen or more every year.The decision to change to narrow rows depends on your acres and the condition of the rest of your equipment. I do less than 75 acres of corn and have a good corn picker,4 row combine head and good heads for the forage harvester. I also do not like narrow row corn because we need all out corn stalks for bedding and often bale it in the spring. A 4 row narrow would have me running the stalks down making them harder to get next spring. A 7000 from new has rubber closing wheels but there are different ones available. We run spike and cast wheels on ours. The best would be to look at what your neighbors use as different wheels are required in different soil types. Tom

Today's Featured Article - New Hitches For Your Old Tractor - by Chris Pratt. For this article, we are going to make the irrational and unlikely assumption that you purchased an older tractor that is in tip top shape and needs no immediate repairs other than an oil change and a good bath. To the newcomer planning to restore the machine, this means you have everything you need for the moment (something to sit in the shop and just look at for awhile while you read the books). To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
