First thing to do would be to lay out a budget for what you can spend. Second would be to find sources of seed that will work with a plate type planter and yet deliver top yields. Locally, I see the area Amish shop adapting JD MaxEmerge units to horse drawn planter frames so I am thinking plate seed varieties are not keeping up in terms of yield. Unless you are not confident in your mechanical abilities I would look at other options in terms of planters and find a guru here or elsewhere that can help you trouble shoot it. I know that it is not always possible to get somebody to help do field work but maybe getting somebody with a modern planter to put your crops in might be the best thing to do for this year. The best non-JD alternative out there in my mind would be a White 5100 and it may be possible to find one at a good price. Then after that would be to get somebody to help you prepare to use it. After that it is a toss up between an IH Cyclo or AC Air Champ.
