How big of a planter do you think a 30hp Kubota could handle? There is a 4 row one on the local craigslist, but I have no idea if that would be too big for my B3030...

Conventional till, flat ground, maybe, on a good day with a FWD, but no till, no way, too heavy. I have seen dealers cut up old planters into single or double row units, that a 30 HP would pull...:D:D

I've got a L3010 I'm going will pull a two row planter with. The ground is already disked.

What type of four row, an old IH, deere? A four row before the 7000 Deere series, I would assume would pull fine behind 30hp w/fwd. Considering your not planting super deep, and the ground is worked. But, my question is, how much ground are you covering with a 4 row. I could plant a lot of ground with a 4 row in a day. I would want something larger, tractor wise, if I was gonna lug a 4 row over 20+ acres with that tractor, considering not wanting to run continous in FWD.
