Drill for beans

[J 1177]

As I keep having bother with the accord sowing sp beans (and the following crop I'm sowing)
What sort of cheap (30 acres of beans at the most) grain drill will drill beans. Any ideas?

As above ,broadcast ,take the skimmers out the plough and bury them ,roll them in in to seel the furrows or skip over with a power harrow to level it

Have available Massey Ferguson 30 4m drill, Tine version, or Discs version similar to photo, or a home made converted Carier 4 m tine drill, or a 4 m tined box drill,

Why take off skimmers?

If its on chop straw ,it tends to block up ,,baled stubbles will be ok .
We had some heavy land that tended to stick so removing the skimmers made it easier to push everything through ,,didnt matter if it looked abit hairy as long as it folded the beens in

I think its to do with your heavy land, skimmers really help bury chopped straw here.
