Can you get the old starter rebuilt? Or is the used starter cheaper?

Sorry to hear that JBetts. Do you or someone you know have the skills to rebuild the starter you have? That sounds like the cheapest way to go and you could still get the moons.

 I guess I call anything that doesn't include a plow no-till. We don't grow much grain, and bale and wrap for silage any we do grow. A big day of seeding for us is 20 acres! Pretty small potatoes in comparison! 
How many acres do you plant?? The machinery you use would be considered minimal till?

That is soley what my family farm does is no till. It involves a LOT of glyphosphate and seed drills are expensive as well. A lot less erosion and loss of soil though.

This afternoon I walked up the hill to inspect the pasture that I cut last Thursday and it was ready a foot or more tall! I just cut it last Wednesday! The 19-19-19 sure works good especially with all the rain!

We have 2500 acres of corn planted and it is up and doing good.We have 1000 acres of Soybeans planted and 1000 to go but the weather is the hold up we keep getting rained out.We can plant 300 acres a day on a good day.But these thunderstorms keep coming through not much rain with them but enough to keep us out a half a day and a full day here and there.
