    Hey, Cap....new piece of farm equipment....

    I saw this running in a field beside the hwy. in Ark, yesterday. It was being demo-ed by a salesman on a local farm....it’s a single pass piece of equip....never seen anything like it...you can run it behind a combine in corn stalks or any type stubble, and it leaves the field, looking like its been gone over about five times with a disc and harrow.
    Running at 10 mph, and didn’t leave a blade of grass....air seeder and chemical tank that can be attached....you can plant soybeans, etc., right behind the combine in the straw, and it gets a perfect stand and looks like a million dollar job!!

    German design and engineering....pretty pricey at $65K, but does a great job and conserves energy with fewer passes over your field.

    They need to tie that to a chinook. Then it would look more dangerous.
