If I may ask...why are you selling?

These are not brand new. Why so costly?

I also have one for sale. Reason for selling, I'm dealing in tomatoes alone now.

All this planter are not durable,they mostly spoiled quickly within a year. They are all china.
It's more advicesible to buy new one to avoid stories. I bought it before to plant pioneer maize seed.when it's another planting season it has spoiled

I'm actually considering to buy it to plant pioneer seed. If I see cheddar na to buy mint gan.

Depends on the vendor and how you store it. Mine is 5 or 6 years old now. Last year we deployed it to apply urea and mycorhyza to our maize and because of the precision delivery, the maize did excellently well.

Fresh maize or as grains? , how many tons /ha.?

Who has used the manual punching type before? I believe it will deliver fertilizer precisely.

I think urs is among the 1st batch. You know anything first batch usually used to be good.

I did not check. We used the grains, cobs and stalk to feed our goats and rams for 8 months!

OK. Boss, but what do you think of fresh maize sales. as against grains?

I borrowed this planter from a friend this evening to plant maize on my farm and it was dropping more than one seed. Sometimes 4 and 5 seeds per hole. What could be the problem @LSKD @Masabannyc @stager ?

. It can't roll again or it's not dropping seeds properly, what actually broke down in the machine.?

In my opinion selling fresh maize is more profitable than selling as grains.

Have you sold fresh before? I sold fresh last year. But I didn't have the required population. If not,... Then the market women don't really have much buying capacity.

Yes, thats the point, its more profitable but many times they cant meet up with supply if you have a large expanse except you planned to plant in batches to suit their demand.

I was actually looking for a buyer that could mop up at least 5,000 cobs for every transaction.
So that I can plan properly for the next batch.

Anything is doable, I wish you best of luck.

It is a common complaint with prolonged use. You have to change the component that regulates the number of seeds. This comes as a spare part (at least the company I bought mine from on Alibaba sent me this).

Great! Thanks for the info. Please kindly drop a link to the company in Alibaba.

You said it all. There are accessories and parts that comes with it. You use it to control how you want the seed to drop per hole. I used mine for 3 years, I do apply fertilizer with it too. Excellent performance and good yield come out. Thanks
