Gregrundell Posted 5/13/2016 17:53 (#5299707) Subject: Cost of Precision planting? Garden City KsDoes anyone have an idea how much precision planting equipment costs? I was thinking air force(need bags) vdrive, speed tube. And the plates for a John Deere vacuum planter. Just like to get a rough idea before I bug a salesman. $2000.00 a row? TA63 Posted 5/13/2016 18:28 (#5299752 - in reply to #5299707) Subject: RE: Cost of Precision planting? SDDon't bother using speed tubes with air force. The system can't make adjustments to reliably maintain ground contact at the higher speeds allowed with speed tubes. Go with delta force, which is the hydraulic individual row down force system. It runs around 1300 a row iirc. AFSGUY33 Posted 5/13/2016 19:16 (#5299836 - in reply to #5299707) Subject: RE: Cost of Precision planting?For a 16 row, you will easily spend $40,000 minimum on vdrive/vset, delta force, speed tube, srm cabling, wavevisions, and a 20/20. wolfwood00 Posted 5/13/2016 19:49 (#5299916 - in reply to #5299836) Subject: RE: Cost of Precision planting? Claremont,MNNo you would be at $40,000 for vSet vDrive delta force 20/20 and add roughly $16,000 for speedtubes for a 16 row AFSGUY33 Posted 5/13/2016 20:16 (#5299972 - in reply to #5299916) Subject: RE: Cost of Precision planting?Did I not say minimum? gregrundell Posted 5/13/2016 20:54 (#5300073 - in reply to #5299916) Subject: RE: Cost of Precision planting? Garden City KsSo could I run vsets and vdrive but not the speed tube? The $40,000 is about the upper limit I'd want to spend in one year. lam Posted 5/13/2016 21:36 (#5300211 - in reply to #5299707) Subject: RE: Cost of Precision planting? sw mnplanter harness,vsets, vdrive, delta force, and wave vision seed tubes about $2500/ row. gleanerman2 Posted 5/13/2016 21:39 (#5300220 - in reply to #5300073) Subject: RE: Cost of Precision planting? Plain City, OHYes i would start with vsets and vdrive. The airforce is not compatible with the new wiring harness that is used with vdrive, deltaforce, speedtube, etc. Deltaforce can be added later as easily as now. Same with Speedtube. We have vsets and vdrive on a 12 row Kinze. The vdrive is quite an impressive clutch/drive combo!! wolfwood00 Posted 5/13/2016 22:08 (#5300294 - in reply to #5300073) Subject: RE: Cost of Precision planting? Claremont,MNYes you can run vSets alone or with vDrive with the standard seed tubes. You need vSets to run vDrive. You will need vSet2 and vDrive to run SpeedTube. If you are thinking about getting SpeedTube at some point make sure you get the vSet2 meters. The vSet Classic meter will not work with SpeedTube. If you already have vSet Classic meters bought before December 1, 2015 you can trade them in for free when you buy SpeedTube before December 1, 2016 after that and you will have to sell your old meters and buy the vSet2 meters. steelguitar Posted 5/13/2016 22:32 (#5300338 - in reply to #5300211) Subject: RE: Cost of Precision planting?

Mechanical drive systems require costly and time-consuming maintenance. vDrive is a maintenance-free electric drive system that lets you breeze through planting without the headaches of a mechanical drive system. Save Time At Precision Planting, we know how important it is to get your planter ready for the spring. The problem is, that even with the most fine-toothed comb, there are still problems that can crop up during planting. A bearing that was good in the shop can go out in the field. A tensioner can break. These issues cost you critical planting time and leave you feeling frustrated because you knew you had done everything you could pre-season. We understand that when conditions are fit, your planter has to be rolling. Add vDrive to your planter and experience a planter drive system that just works, because it's simple. Save time, money, and frustration and keep your planter rolling with vDrive. Remove Complex Drive Systems vDrive replaces the mechanical drive system, simplifying your planter. A vDrive motor mounts to each vSet meter and makes that row a single row planter because that row is controlled individually. Save Seed With Row Shut Off vDrive allows the seed and insecticide meter to turn off at a boundary or where you have already planted, making sure that you don't overspend on inputs. Get Population Right on Curves When you plant around a curve with a typical drive system, the population on each row varies because all meters turn at the same speed while the inside row units of the planter travel slower and the outside faster, resulting in a large variation in population With vDrive on your planter, each meter turns the speed that matches the speed of that row unit, so the plant population is correct on each row of the planter. Gone is the yield loss from wide population variances. Variable Rate Done Flawlessly Changing seeding rates based on the yield potential of different areas of the field makes sense. To have confidence that you are getting the most out of variable rate, you need a planter that gets the rate correct in each zone in the field. vDrive hits the rates because each row can change population independently, rather than all rows planting the same population.

Skip to content The vDriveZX …Delivers hardware emulation for up to eight Microdrives and includes a comprehensive toolkit for managing Microdrive Cartridge images which are stored on SD Card. The vDriveZX is simply connected to your Interface 1, either with your existing Microdrives or by itself. An existing Microdrive case is used to house the vDriveZX (check out the installation manual here).The SD Card file system implementation is DOS based and is compatible with systems which can read or write to FAT16 or FAT32 media. The vDriveZX supports SD Cards with a capacity of up to 32GB.The vDriveZX adopts the MDR image format. This format is supported by popular emulators such as Spectaculator and FUSE, and in general, images created with these emulators will be compatible with the vDriveZX and vice versa.

Than just add PP stuff on a used machine. You have to compare apples with apples . If you do not want to use individual row control ( shut of , variable rate ) than you would not need such a system with vdrive. If you do not want row by row downforce control than you do not want Deltaforce. BUT you can always use vSet meters which are a huge improvement versus OEM meters. And the cost like 250 bucks a row. I do not think you could buy a new OEM meter for that price !!! We have had JD 1750 planter with eSets for the last 3 years . we have had extremely good results with todays bad quality inhomogeneous seeds. This year we upgraded our planter ( bought a used 1770NT ) and we installed vSet meters with vDrive. We have had unexpectedly good results with vSets. Al the time 99,9-100 percent singulation . and you could visually see the row units were just floating through the fields . AND on the top of that our singulation in sunflower seeds were much greater than any other meter could do ( 98-99 percent ). Precision Planting was the first company to show growers that the seed monitors with the average population figure are cheating . The good thing about PP that you could go with your system step by step as your budget allows you. redoak Posted 5/14/2016 11:14 (#5301062 - in reply to #5301052) Subject: Does PP have a weather button? deep SW On.For $40k PP should come with a weather button,so you can set amount of rain,sun,wind,ect. you want........IMHO spending $40k "here" on add ons too a good planter won't help much on our soils and climate we seem to get Grhog Posted 5/14/2016 19:35 (#5301802 - in reply to #5301062) Subject: RE: Does PP have a weather button? Se wisc.Until recent upgrades to Deere vacuum meters the best they could do on singulation was 93% new out of the box. Thank PP for forcing upgrades to OEM units. E-sets here on last two planters with Ag leader shut offs. Boery Posted 5/15/2016 14:14 (#5303133 - in reply to #5301062) Subject: RE: Does PP have a weather button? HungaryI am just repeating myself but you have to compare apples to apples. You do not have to buy 40K worth of stuff to start using PP. 40 K is more like to a larger planter with all the possible functions . In the other hand if you do not feel that you need it than just do not buy it that easy, but you have to accept that other people might feel the need of it. A good planting monitor can give you more confident that your planting is going properly. A good planting monitor could warn you for errors you would never notice until the seeds emerged . On top of that you would be seeing errors you could never notice at all but have
