An agricultural implement includes a frame assembly configured to support a storage tank. The frame assembly includes a pair of longitudinal beams positioned on opposite lateral sides of the storage tank, and multiple cross members extending between the pair of longitudinal beams. A substantially flat upper surface of each cross member is secured to a lower surface of each longitudinal beam, and each cross member is configured to support the storage tank via contact between the substantially flat upper surface of the cross member and a substantially flat lower surface of the storage tank such that the substantially flat lower surface of the storage tank is positioned vertically below an upper surface of each longitudinal beam.

1. An agricultural implement, comprising: a tool bar assembly;a plurality of row units coupled to the tool bar assembly, and configured to deliver flowable agricultural product to a field;a storage tank configured to hold the flowable agricultural product, and to provide the flowable agricultural product to the plurality of row units; anda frame assembly coupled to the tool bar assembly, and configured to support the storage tank, wherein the frame assembly comprises a pair of longitudinal beams positioned on opposite lateral sides of the storage tank, and a plurality of cross members extending between the pair of longitudinal beams, wherein a substantially flat upper surface of each cross member is secured to a lower surface of each longitudinal beam, and each cross member is configured to support the storage tank via contact between the substantially flat upper surface of the cross member and a substantially flat lower surface of the storage tank such that the substantially flat lower surface of the storage tank is positioned vertically below an upper surface of each longitudinal beam and a central longitudinal support assembly substantially parallel to the pair of the longitudinal beams and coupled to a lower surface of each cross member, and configured to support the plurality of cross members. 2. The agricultural implement of claim 1, wherein each cross member is oriented substantially perpendicular to the pair of longitudinal beams. 3. The agricultural implement of claim 1, comprising a plurality of mounting straps configured to secure the storage tank to the plurality of cross members, wherein each mounting strap includes a first end secured to a respective cross member, a second end secured to the respective cross member, and a body that extends around an upper portion of the storage tank from the first end to the second end. 4. The agricultural implement of claim 1, wherein the storage tank comprises a plurality of substantially flat lower surfaces, and each substantially flat lower surface is configured to align with a respective cross member. 5. An agricultural implement, comprising: a tool bar assembly;a plurality of row units coupled to the tool bar assembly, and configured to deliver flowable agricultural product to a field;a storage tank configured to hold the flowable agricultural product, and to provide the flowable agricultural product to the plurality of row units; anda frame assembly coupled to the tool bar assembly, and configured to support the storage tank, wherein the frame assembly comprises a pair of longitudinal beams positioned on opposite lateral sides of the storage tank, and a plurality of cross members extending between the pair of longitudinal beams, wherein each cross member includes a continuous substantially flat upper surface, the continuous substantially flat upper surface of each cross member is directly coupled to a lower surface of each longitudinal beam, and each cross member is configured to support the storage tank via contact between the continuous substantially flat upper surface of the cross member and a substantially flat lower surface of the storage tank such that the substantially flat lower surface of the storage tank is positioned vertically below an upper surface of each longitudinal beam and a central longitudinal support assembly substantially parallel to the pair of the longitudinal beams and coupled to a lower surface of each cross member, and configured to support the plurality of cross members. 6. The agricultural implement of claim 5, wherein the plurality of cross members is configured to position the substantially flat lower surface of the storage tank substantially vertically level with the lower surface of each longitudinal beam. 7. The agricultural implement of claim 5, comprising a plurality of mounting straps configured to secure the storage tank to the plurality of cross members, wherein each mounting strap includes a first end secured to a respective cross member, a second end secured to the respective cross member, and a body that extends around an upper portion of the storage tank from the first end to the second end. 8. The agricultural implement of claim 7, wherein the first end and the second end of each mounting strap are secured to the continuous substantially flat upper surface of the respective cross member. 9. The agricultural implement of claim 5, wherein the storage tank comprises a substantially cylindrical body and a plurality of rectangular extensions extending from a lower portion of the substantially cylindrical body, wherein each rectangular extension comprises a substantially flat lower surface, and each substantially flat lower surface is configured to align with a respective cross member.
