I pull the planter to the south farm get it swapped over from soybean plates to corn plates and go plant some sunflowers pulling the JD 7000 planter with the International 1086 to put some black oiler sunflowers seeds in the ground.

I do not know about your area but several here plant milo(grain sorghum) for bird seed food plots. It could be planted with your planter and probably not change any settings. It takes quite a bit less fertilizer to grow and is drought tolerant!

The dairy farms grow a lot of sorghum and that was probably my top pick for what to plant good idea and guess lol

When using the corn heads do you increase the population ?? I have planted sunflowers for several years (small 1-1.5 acre plots and some years don't get the coverage i should..

Yes I increased the population all the way to 56k but I think that was a little too much will probably back it down to around 45k next time
