We just acquired a Befco Green Rite II , that we can't find reference to on the Befco site. All the listed green rite over seeders have one box, ours has 2 ( front one is agitated rear one is not). I assume one is seed the other is fertilizer, which one needs the agitator? It also has 2 Gandy chemical hoppers mounted on the rear in front of the packer roller. I assume these are for herbicide or pesticide. Correct ? Thanks in advance

update Talked to FIL and he sumised that both boxes were seed boxes . The agitated box for seeds that tend to bridge like brome ,timothy and such. The none agitated box for smoother flowing seeds. The chemical boxes he thought were for granular pesticides for root worm and army worms as we have trouble with them in wheat. We came to these conclusions as there is 0 rust in any of the boxes and they have good paint inside all boxes, Sent an email to Befco to see if they made a 2 box unit for State use as this was a surplus ODOT machine. Ill update further when I get more info later tim
