Sunburst Montana
Menneboy hit it right on about the on row packing and seed to soil contact.  Some of our ground this year had the top ~1 1/2"completely dry and crusted.  Still we were able to pack the seed into the moisture because of the air drill.  We ran a JD 730 air disc seeder for a few years before going to an air drill. Always had a great stand but thats because we would luck out and get an inch rain after seeding.  At times you could go back and find the seed just sitting in the dry dirt.
