Video: This Was International Harvesters First Attempt At No Till Farming - 1940 Farmall M

Don is a retired Purdue University Ag Engineer who restored this 1940 Farmall M with the rare two row no-till planter. This is believed to be the first no-till planter built, produced by International Harvester from 1953 to 1955. Only 50 of them were built and only about 23 were sold. Don shares the history of this no-till planter which was developed at Purdue University.
