Subject: wheat planting on 15"


I was looking to replace my OLD and rotting carcass of a grain drill, a local dealer has a great plains drill converted to 24 rows on 15" with SI meters, it is 3 pt hitch on a no-till caddy. My concerns are: 1. I have planted beans on 8" for about the last 12 years with yields of about 55-60 bu. normally, (but I have to till first). 2. I usually plant about 50 -75 acres of wheat, not real sure about it with this drill (again I have to disk in the fall) 3. I will need to spend some money on the old drill if I have to keep it for wheat or beans, would like to no till instead of all the tillage for fuel savings and labor. I am looking for opinions on wheat and bean yields in 15" or should I keep looking. Have good dealer support very close to home.
