  • What is the best drill for planting solid-seeded soybeans?
  • A drill for planting solid-seeded soybeans should provide accurate seed metering (without damaging the seed), uniform depth control and good soil-to-seed contact. Uniform seed spacing in the row is desirable, but slight variation in the spacing distances has less effect on soybean yield than on corn yield.
  • How to drill soybeans?
  • Use of a seeding rate slightly higher than that recommended for 30-inch rows is necessary. For successful drilled soybeans, you need a uniform stand and a canopy with no "holes" that permit late season growth. The new soybean drills with press wheels provide better depth control than the older drills.
  • Can a grain drill be used for planting soybeans?
  • Like the others said just drill don't plug anything, don't overthink it, don't worry about driving on them. I've drilled with 7.5" on lots and lots of acres. Currently notill 10". You will be surprised how well it will work. Jdtank122 - 4/4/2018 18:49 Hey everyone . I'm needing some advice on planting soybeans with a grain drill .
  • What is drilled seeding of soybeans?
  • Drilled (solid) seeding of soybeans is a continually growing practice in Missouri. More than 1 million acres were drilled in 1986, compared to just 300,000 acres in 1979. Solid seeding was predominant when soybeans first became popular in Missouri and the crop was used primarily for hay. At that time, some weed growth in the hay crop was tolerable.
  • Do you use a drill to plant beans?
  • A drill is a controlled spill at best. If it's a small field, I'd checker plant them with the corn planter before going back to drilled beans. I hated drilling beans. You waste seed as some gets planted about 0.5" deep and some at 3.5". That is why we built our own 20" planter for corn and soybeans.
  • Are new soybean drills better than older drills?
  • The new soybean drills with press wheels provide better depth control than the older drills. Many farmers, however, continue to use the older drills successfully. Avoid excessive speeds that give drill unit bounce. Four to five miles-per-hour should be the top speed with any drill, even on a smooth seedbed.
