Seeding Time!

The snow finally melted and the guys were able to get in the field on April 25 to test the equipment before starting seeding peas a couple of days later.  They got a different air seeder this year.  They tried one like it on Tony's farm last year.  Tony's rental farm up north has a lot of big hills, and this seeder handles the hills better than the old one.  This one is called a precision drill and the shanks on it move individually instead of in sections, so they are able to follow the contour of the ground better.
