Cole Tractor Planter

A Cole 12MX planter is designed for precision planting and fertilizing of crops such as corn, beans, peas, pumpkins, sorghum, and soybeans. Its planting system is suited to small-acreage farming, gardens, and other tractor-based planting applications.

The collection includes one-row and multi-row configurations, including a 13-inch one-row Multiflex planter, a 14-inch one-row planter with fertilizer and cultivator capabilities, and a 144-inch four-row toolbar planter. The broader Cole 12MX lineup also includes two-row toolbar configurations.

Horsepower requirements vary by configuration. The listed models range from approximately 20–40 HP for the one-row planter/fertilizer/cultivator to 30–60 HP for the four-row toolbar, while the 13-inch one-row Multiflex model is rated for 25–45 HP.

Yes. The Cole 12MX is designed to combine planting and fertilizer application, with an adjustable fertilizer rate of approximately 34 to 650 pounds per acre. This allows operators to place seed and fertilizer in a coordinated planting operation.

The 12MX uses interchangeable seed plates, adjustable seed depth, distance gears, and a spring-loaded seed opener for planting control. Its cast-iron press wheel firms the seedbed while leaving a loose zone directly over the seed to support germination.

Choose the Cole 12MX planter based on your tractor's horsepower, required number of rows, planting width, hitch configuration, and whether you need fertilizer or cultivation capabilities. Smaller tractors and garden plots may be better suited to one-row configurations, while larger tractors can use wider multi-row toolbar setups.
