The BSM 2BYF Series Corn Planter with Fertilizer is designed for agricultural tractors from approximately 20HP to 80HP. Its main advantage is the ability to complete furrow opening, fertilizer application, precision seed placement, soil covering and pressing during one field pass.
The series is available in 2-row, 3-row, 4-row, 5-row and 6-row configurations. Different models can be selected according to tractor horsepower, rear lifting capacity, required planting rows, row spacing, seed size, fertilizer requirements and local field conditions.
Compared with a general-purpose corn seeder covering a wider tractor power range, the 2BYF Series is positioned more specifically for farmers who want to combine maize planting and fertilizer application in one operation.
Main Agricultural Applications
- Planting corn and maize
- Simultaneous seeding and fertilizer application
- Precision seed placement in prepared farmland
- Planting soybean with a suitable seed plate
- Planting sorghum and similar suitable large seeds
- Opening planting furrows
- Covering seed after placement
- Pressing soil to improve seed-to-soil contact
- Reducing repeated tractor passes during planting season
Planting and Fertilizing in One Pass
The key difference of the 2BYF Series is the integration of seed placement and fertilizer application. Instead of completing planting and fertilizing as two separate field operations, the planter can perform both jobs during the same tractor pass.
This can help reduce repeated tractor travel, shorten field operation time and simplify the planting workflow during busy planting periods.
Seed and fertilizer are stored in separate systems. The fertilizer placement and application rate should be adjusted according to crop requirements, fertilizer type and local agronomic recommendations.
How the 2BYF Corn Planter Works
The planter is connected to the tractor through a rear three-point hitch. During forward operation, the ground wheels rotate and drive the mechanical seed-metering and fertilizer-metering systems.
The furrow openers create planting furrows at the required depth. The fertilizer system places fertilizer near the planting row while the seed-metering units release seeds at the selected spacing.
After seed placement, covering and pressing components close the furrow and improve seed-to-soil contact. A short field test should be completed before continuous operation to confirm planting depth, seed spacing and fertilizer output.

Recommended BSM Tractor Matching
The 2BYF Series covers a relatively wide tractor power range, but different horsepower levels should be used for different planting workloads rather than treating all tractor sizes as the same application.
- 50HP Tractor: A practical match for the 2BYF-4 and selected configurations around the 4-row range. This combination is suitable for small and medium farms that want to combine maize planting and fertilizer application while maintaining good field maneuverability. View BSM 50HP Four-Wheel Tractor
- 70HP Tractor: Suitable for medium farms requiring greater daily planting capacity. The 70HP class is particularly relevant to suitable 5-row and 6-row configurations after confirming planter weight, rear lifting capacity and field conditions. View BSM 70HP 4WD Farm Tractor
- 80HP Tractor: Positioned near the upper end of the 2BYF tractor power range. It is suitable for medium and larger planting fields where a 6-row configuration and higher daily planting efficiency are required. Final matching should confirm planter weight, fertilizer load and tractor rear lifting capacity. View BSM 80HP 4WD Farm Tractor
For tractors above approximately 80HP or buyers requiring a broader planting equipment range, see the BSM corn seeder planter designed for approximately 30-100HP tractors.

50HP, 70HP and 80HP Planting Differences
Different tractor horsepower levels should correspond to different farm sizes and planting workloads.
- 50HP: Focused on small and medium fields, practical 4-row planting and flexible field operation.
- 70HP: Focused on medium farms, higher daily planting capacity and 5-row or suitable 6-row configurations.
- 80HP: Focused on higher-capacity medium farm planting and suitable 6-row configurations near the upper end of the 2BYF power range.

Suitable Crops
Corn and Maize
Corn and maize are the primary applications of the 2BYF Series. The machine can combine precision seed placement and fertilizer application during the same operation.
Soybean
With a suitable seed plate and correct seed-metering adjustment, the planter can also be configured for soybean planting.
Sorghum
The planting system can be configured for sorghum and other suitable large seeds, subject to seed size, seed plate and planting requirements.
Field Preparation Before Planting
The 2BYF planter performs best in farmland that has already been properly prepared. A relatively level seedbed helps the planting units maintain more stable working depth and seed placement.
Depending on soil conditions, field preparation may include primary ploughing, disc harrowing or rotary tillage.
For finer seedbed preparation before planting, see the BSM 1GQN Series Rotary Tiller for 25-100HP Tractors.
Suitable Field Conditions
Prepared Farmland
The best planting performance is normally achieved in land that has already been ploughed, harrowed or rotary tilled.
Relatively Level Fields
A relatively level field surface helps maintain more consistent planting depth and seed placement.
Fields with Moderate Crop Residue
A moderate amount of surface residue can normally be handled, but excessive long stalks or heavy residue should be chopped or cleared if they interfere with the furrow opener or planting unit.
Important Tractor Matching Factors
Tractor horsepower should not be used as the only matching criterion. The following factors should also be confirmed:
- Rear lifting capacity
- Tractor operating weight
- Three-point hitch specification
- Rear tire spacing
- Planter total weight
- Number of planting rows
- Seed and fertilizer load
- Field slope
- Soil resistance
Larger 5-row and 6-row planters require sufficient rear lifting capacity and appropriate front-to-rear tractor weight balance. Front counterweights may be required depending on the tractor and planter combination.
Seed and Fertilizer Adjustment
Before field operation, the correct seed plate should be selected according to crop type and seed size. The metering system should then be tested to confirm stable seed release.
Fertilizer output should also be calibrated before planting. Excessive fertilizer placed too close to seed can negatively affect germination, so fertilizer rate and placement should follow local agronomic recommendations.
Planting depth, seed spacing and fertilizer placement should be checked after a short trial pass before continuous planting begins.
Does the 2BYF Corn Planter Require Tractor PTO?
The standard mechanical seed-metering and fertilizer-metering systems are normally driven by the planter ground wheels. Therefore, tractor PTO power is generally not required for the standard mechanical metering process.
The exact configuration should still be confirmed before ordering because drive structure may vary according to selected equipment configuration.
