NWMO | I’d recommend a 1770nt if it’s just going to be a corn planter
The 16/31 1790’s are good planters, but are much heavier and I wouldn’t want to pull them with the tractors you listed, especially in hill ground.
Biggest restriction is going to be hydraulic capacity. If you keep it simple, you’ll be able to run it, but adding things like a hydraulic driven fertilizer system, or hydraulic driven hex shaft and next thing you know you’ll need 5 scv’s.
If you do it, get a bulk fill 16 row and you’ll be tickled pink. It loads fast, carries 100 units of corn (235 acres @ 34k population), and if you maintain the planter well it’ll do a good job
On a side note. If you do get a Deere bulk fill vacuum planter, I’d look into buying a used set of E set meters, they’re better than the standard xp meters and you can get them cheap most of the time now since everyone wants v set | |

Possible planter upgrade wish list questions.
