We want to purchase a no-till planter. We have been trying to find a source of no-till planters that transplant and seed through a killed cover crop. Do you have any suggestions?

What can I put in front of my JD 7200 planter units to keep cornstalks from jamming into every bracket and moniter wiring on the planter while I no-till into standing cornstalks?

What worked for me was to run a crop roller over the stalks to make them directional. This does not severe the stocks. A crop roller runs the same way you're planting and keeps them from jamming the equipment. This also saves the tires.
