I remember the first time I saw a 16 row it seemed so big. Where I grew up the 6 and 12 row planters were the norm in the 70s to the 90s. Today 16 row corn planters are the most sold size of corn planter.
This is the best channel for fans of farm videos, or anyone interested in modern agriculture equipment. He is very knowledgeable and seems genuinely interested in this and the farmers obviously enjoy taking him along
The DB 90 and 120 are always very fun to watch. Lot more pieces to change out though on the 20" models when row cleaners and press wheels etc wear out. I like the way he has the 470 set up. Looks really good out there in the field like that.
The little 8 row model is so cute. Wish my grandparents didn’t reverse mortgage their rural house. I could’ve used one of these on it after inheritance hehe
This would illuminate needing for five farmers helping you get a feel planted at the same time like that did you know 50-75 years ago ago… I have a wonderful black-and-white picture of my father-in-law and my grandfather in law and a brother of my father-in-law and two other men all come and down the field with their tractors and planters one behind the other just so much so that they don’t run into each other but spacing out the field rows perfectly and it was an impressive site and it’s one of my favorite farming pictures in terms of history. But this illuminates the need of five tractors and it is very appreciative John Deere to come out with us I must say. I’ve got to send this video to my son who has been farming he was A teenager and he’s 40 now. He just loves it and he will be amazed at the price of this piece of equipment. Thank you for sharing!!!!!
54 row 20 inch spacing is close! I'm surprised to see him using the row markers with all the tech going on there! Man! Mind blowing! Lol We just got thru planting our corn with our 8 row planter on 30 inch spacing lol sweet video brother!
LSW tires are impressive. Where I live tracks and triple tires and the best option to get the power to the ground in the red clay soils here. LSW seems to work well farther north.
There's a guy around Charles City Iowa with 2 of the John 48 row 30inch planters which where modified to have even more rows making the planter several yards wider than factory.
My bosses farm corn every year because they have a dairy farm. They use a John Deere 8120 with tinted windows and a John Deere 1750 8 row planter that has liquid fertilizer tanks on it and small 1 bushel seed boxes.
Great video Jason. Nice machines. But i wonder before planting corn did they cultivate the ground? Because it looks Like Only harvested and mulched. Thanks for answer by the way.
Actually the DB planters are not made by John Deere in Moline Illinois. The frame was designed and still is built by Bauer Built manufacturing of Paten Iowa and they still build them to this day for deere. Deere supplies them with everything but the frame and they assemble the rest for Deere . Also Bauer built has designed a number of different things for mother Deere including the first prototype track design they used on the 9rx tractors. I thought I'd tell you this so you can correct yourself the next time you film a DB planter. I learned this from a guy that works at the HQ of John Deere. But you can do a simple google search to see I'm right. LOVE THE VIDEOS KEEP UP THE GREAT CONTENT!!
We had allis chalmers d17 and 185’s. 4 row ac planter jd 4 row cultivator. Had jd 55B combine which we upgraded to f2 gleaner. After mid 80’s it took off from there . All magnum 7140’s
With corn it really depends on soil types. Flat black ground there’s not much difference in 20’s and 30’s with corn. On lighter soil and hilly ground 20’s out yield 30’s on our farm by 15-20bu every time.
He’s got it in one planter. We have more in 4-24 row planters, but we don’t have room for that in most fields. You only so many days that you can use them
Just curious; What other equipment does he have and how many acres is farmed? Does he have a lot of bin space on the farm or does it go right to mill? In any event, I remember old 2 row check planters and 2 bottom turnin plows and 6 foot disks. In my young days I didn't know any farmers who had a lot of ground. They farmed their own and some on shares and some rented. I'm 78 and I remember those days fondly.
This is a large family farm running thousands of acres. They have several planters. This is the largest but they run a few DB60 36 row 20 inch planters. You can see one of those planters in this video ruclips.net/video/cFulfGytGtI/видео.html They have a bin system and a fleet of IH Lonestsr semi trucks. They have an S790 combine and several S780s.
Charlie said that was a small field , lol, looked pretty big to me, lol, but I guess a planter that size makes makes it seem small, thanks for the video Jason!!!
It's cool planter for sure but seems with 54 rows on 20" that the dual 50 bu boxes would be increased in size cuz it seems like they effect the 350-450 acres a day.
It works well in big fields but will cover the smaller ones. The fields in this area are 50 to 100 acres. Lots of travel time. I have filmed a DB90 in a 900 acre field and with no travel and back and forth it can cover over 700 acres in a day.

What a planter. Amazing how big they are becoming. As a kid a 4 row was common and a 6-8 row was getting big and a 16 row was huge.

Doesn’t take long to plant corn when you have a planter that size very impressive
Great vídeo Jason.
Go big or go home! Love it.
Great video as usual. I enjoy watching the farm implements do farm yoga:folding up for transport
Keep up with the good content
Thank you for watching. Lots of spring tillage and planting videos on the way.
Ladies and Gentlemen, now that's a damn planter.
🇧🇴 Excelente okey 👍 💯 puntos maravilloso saludos cordiales desde Sudamérica Santa Cruz bolivia 🇧🇴 👍 excelente 💜
That’s awesome
It can get up and cover a field pretty quickly. I am looking forward to your 2022 corn planting videos.
Wow, that is some width on that planter. Cool video BTP.
Thank you for watching. Stay tuned for a feature on the DB120.
Things sure have changed since I was farming back in the early 70's. But it is very interesting to watch. Great job!!!
The size and speed of modern machinery is impressive. The 70’s a time of big advancements in farm farm equipment.
Thanks, what a fine video!!!
Thank you for watching.
Yeah like you said it's not so much about the width but more the openers, kinda like what The Welkers are finding with their new tool bar
Thats planter is awesome. Great video
That is one cool planter.
It’s a giant. It was neat to film this one.
What an impressive planter😉👍
Nice video👍😁
Thank you for watching Simon.
I find tractors with tires more enjoyable to watch. Anyone else?
Especially the big LSW tires!!!
Tracks offer so much more speed in especially in tillage. Tire tractors are selling less and less units where I live.
LSW tires are impressive. Where I live tracks and triple tires and the best option to get the power to the ground in the red clay soils here. LSW seems to work well farther north.

Hello everyone big tractor power good vidéo acres on the field
There's a guy around Charles City Iowa with 2 of the John 48 row 30inch planters which where modified to have even more rows making the planter several yards wider than factory.
I always wanted to ride on the back of one of these. Right on the stairs between the tanks.

@@bigtractorpower no problem Jason. Have a nice day!
That would be crazy servicing all of the row units. But then again winters get pretty long to do so.
Awesome Video Buddy!!
Thank you Sebastian. Stay tuned for a DB120 this month.
I love wheat Harvest combine john deere
I love the fact that it has markers. In case your GPS subscription runs out.
I have several minutes of footage of this planter using the marker but opted to save that footage for a future video.
Great video Jason. Nice machines. But i wonder before planting corn did they cultivate the ground? Because it looks Like Only harvested and mulched. Thanks for answer by the way.
This is no till planting. They directly seed into the soybean stubble from the crop harvested the previous fall.
thats insane

Here i go thinking a 12 row is huge
(Btw im from Belgium we use moltible small feilds not huge ones that's not a options for us but would be dope
Totally awesome!!! Pretty much gone, are the days using an Allis Chalmers WD-45 pulling a 4-row John Deere planter with 36" spaced rows.
Stay tuned. I have a 1974 Oliver 6 row planter filmed. 😁

I didn't know there was so much money in corn. Imagine over $1,000,000 just to plant corn.
BTP we have seen your videos with him harvesting with that 24 row corn head.
That is correct. It is a neat farm to visit.
Now that’s a drill
Great video. Interested in what the fuel cost in a day pulling that planter is.
That is a good question. I will ask it next time.
@@bigtractorpower cool. We are paying 6.25 for on road fuel here in NW PA.
Awesome video Jason. Makes me wonder how big equipment will get through better technology? Very cool!!
You have to think we are getting close to the limit but just think what farms thought of a 12 row corn planter in the 1960’s.
@@bigtractorpower Exactly.
Neighbor and I discussed 20" rows and thought they would be ideal for both corn and beans.
They have worked very well for this farm. They harvest with ease in corn.
With corn it really depends on soil types. Flat black ground there’s not much difference in 20’s and 30’s with corn. On lighter soil and hilly ground 20’s out yield 30’s on our farm by 15-20bu every time.
Over a half a million dollars for something that most people used for less a month each year...crazy...but necessary
He’s got it in one planter. We have more in 4-24 row planters, but we don’t have room for that in most fields. You only so many days that you can use them
I'd sure like to see this field from a drone about mid season to see what the coverage looks like.
Just curious; What other equipment does he have and how many acres is farmed? Does he have a lot of bin space on the farm or does it go right to mill?

That's a big operation. Lot of cash flow.
I've planted a lot of corn with a 246 Deere planter and a JD 40. Yup a 2 bottom plow and a 7 foot disc.
Charlie said that was a small field , lol, looked pretty big to me, lol, but I guess a planter that size makes makes it seem small, thanks for the video Jason!!!
How does he apply his fertilizer
Flex is impressive
It really follows the contour.
Big more land no help one man Job.
It's cool planter for sure but seems with 54 rows on 20" that the dual 50 bu boxes would be increased in size cuz it seems like they effect the 350-450 acres a day.
John Deere uses the same CCS boxes on the 12 row to the 54 row. You would think some larger units would be used on the bigger models.
for 2022 they they went from 50 to 65 bu. central tanks
what county if I may ask great video thx
For the size of things has CHarlie ever thought about acquiring a X1100 combine?
I do not not know I have not asked him. He has a 790 and several S780s.
For the price of the x9.1100 he could have two 790’s.
The rig needs a Texas size field!
It works well in big fields but will cover the smaller ones. The fields in this area are 50 to 100 acres. Lots of travel time. I have filmed a DB90 in a 900 acre field and with no travel and back and forth it can cover over 700 acres in a day.
Humongous planter!
Lots and lots of rows
@@bigtractorpower Like twin rows, 20" rows is a clever way to have a more advantageous plant coverage of the soil.
Must be 1.1 to 1.2 million in that setup
Yes indeed between the tractor and the planter.
7000 6 row 7400 tractor...but it's paid for
How do you know this one isn’t paid for?
@@gregjames5070 I guess I really don't know..but a million dollar rig would be hard to cash flow..with my operation I've learned a few things ..debt will be the death of you
The corn planter all of One Lonely Farmers haters believes he needs to buy.
So that's what dry ground looks like.
Let’s say it was marginally dry. It’s been a wet spring here too.

Interesting how John Deere went from the designation 9570RX to 9RX 570
The RX tractors jumped 20 Hp. The 9570RX became the 9RX 590. It’s a little easier to say 9RX and the horse power rating. I just filmed a 9RX 640 and have a video on the 9RX 490 posted at ruclips.net/video/O142l9xgTgk/видео.html
The “9” is the series/frame size, 570 is the horsepower. Kinda copied new Holland on the model numbers.
The Advantage of Today's Technology
They can cover allot of ground in a hurry.
Silly that they can't have a electrical wipe blade ( or some device) on the top of combine corn header to remove corn stocks
The best I have seen is a screen added to reduce the build up.
This year Allis Chalmers 200 8 row 30 jd 7000 , next year Maybe use the AC 7580 to get some looks?H

we expect 250-300 acres from a 12-30 inch planter. 400 acres from a planter 3 times as wide?
The fields in this area are 50 to 100 acres. Lots of travel time. I have filmed a DB90 in a 900 acre field and with no travel and back and forth it can cover over 700 acres in a day.
That makes short work of planting.
Small field for something that big if you ask me.
Wonder how he side dress’s that 20” corn or puts the nitrogen on the corn
They apply NH3 ahead of planting in an angle.
What would Charlie charge per acre to plant for the public🤔
Who is the public?
Other farmers, like if I lived close and needed 500 acres planted. How much would he charge per acre to plant it🤔
What is his plant population per acre? And how many acres can he plant before he has to refill?
Somewhere around 200 -250 acres.

Why do they want to keep building bigger equipment that you’d have to give yourself lots of room at the end of every round just to turn around in?!
More efficiency
Who tf can afford this ridiculously big planter? Good god
Huge farms that has the money
Those tanks look completely undersized for that 90 footer.
John Deere uses a 100 bu CCS tank on all its planters from 12 to 54 rows.
