    Seeding Corn with Discers (need some help!)

    I'm going to plant a few acres to corn for grazing. I have a 360 massey discer, and am wondering if anybody out there has used this method for planting. How far apart should the rows be? How heavy to seed? What other seed is close for calibration?
    Thanks for any help or suggestions!!!

    Not sure what a discer is but if it's just for grazing row width shouldn't matter a whole lot. We use 36" rows but there are a lot of 30" rows and a few using narrower rows, but that's only because you need the rows for combining. For grazing, a lot of people just broadcast and harrow it in (we plant 2" deep, 27-29,000 ppa depending on fertility).
