Used Planters Buying Guide
While planters are an essential part of any major--or minor--farming operation, they’re definitely going to be some of the more expensive machines you'll buy. So expensive, in fact, that they might be out of your budget. That doesn’t make them any less necessary. This is why you might want to turn to used planters. These will give you the work you need at a price that works for you. Contact Bucklin Tractor & Implement to learn more about our used planters for sale, or visit one of our many locations throughout Kansas.
How to Choose the Right Planter
First, let’s make sure you’re looking for the right features in a planter. After all, you’ll probably keep this purchase with you for many years before you even think about getting a new one, so you’ll want to make the right choice the first time. And while not every farming operation will invest in a planter, there comes a point when laying seed by hand is too inefficient and time-consuming. Instead of paying workers by the hour to do this, simply upgrade your tools to include a machine that does all the planting for you.
Focus on what your farm looks like and how your planter will need to accommodate and work with it. For example, the size of your property might affect the sizes of used planters you might be looking at. The biggest option is unhelpful to smaller fields. Your tractor size will also play a role in narrowing down your options.
Always make sure any attachments you use match the size and horsepower of your tractor, or you’ll be fighting your tools just to get them to work in your favor. Finally, the seeds you plant might require special features, like a vacuum to ensure the seed actually makes it into the ground. Thinking about the aspects of using your planter can help you find a model that’s most useful to you.
What to Consider When Buying Used
When you know what you’re looking for and you start checking out your used planter options, you’ll want to keep some additional tips in mind when looking at pre-owned options. These models will already have some wear on them, but you want to make sure they don’t have too much wear.
Perform a thorough inspection and ask for documentation regarding the previous owner’s habits, like how often they performed the regular maintenance. Understanding previous challenges can help you plan for the future.
With all this in mind, it’s time to stop by Bucklin Tractor & Implement so we can show you what we have available right now. Contact our planter sales team and let us know which models you’re most interested in.
