Question

Distinguish between a seed drill and a seed planter

Answer 1

The biggest difference between a drilland a planter is the row spacing. They both do a good job of planting and covering the seed. A planter is usually adjustable for row spacings ofbetween 20 inches to 40 inches, and is used for row crops like corn and soybeans.

Answer 2

Answer:

The ones that handle larger seeds tend to be called planters, whereas the ones that handle smaller seeds tend to be called seed drills, grain drills, and seeders (including precision seeders).

• Older planters commonly have a seed bin for each row and a fertilizer bin for two or more rows.
