What's the best drill for establishing typical stewardship mixes such as AB9, AB15 etc...

Is a conventional cereal drill based on an Accord metering system with suffolk coulters the best as most only want drilling quite shallow?

Or is small micro seeder on a cultivator a good option.

Do most drill the seed all mixed together or drill different part of the mixes seperately?

Air drill better than box drill unless someone standing on the back with a stick moving seed about as it starts to run out.another issue is vibration from an air fan or power Harrow separating seeds into differant sizes.
