What is the data on high-cost planter technologies related to yield and ROI?

When I look at the stand from PP speed tube the seed spacing is phenomenal, I am just wondering if there is any true data saying that there is a benefit to "picket-fence" rows and if it differs from corn and beans? Also, what planter technology has given you the greatest ROI?
