Trading Planters Doesn’t Make Sense Stop at any farm shop in the winter and one of the common activities you will find is a planter being prepped for spring. The planter row units are being gone through to make sure that all of the wear parts are in tip top shape; bushings, bearings, bolts, openers, […]
Avoid Premature Wear Prevent early seed tube wear and get long life with the tungsten-carbide tip on the BullsEye tube. This simple wear tip prevents disk openers from wearing a flap of plastic that slows down the seed as it exits, causing poor spacing. It’s a simple solution to an annoying problem. Eliminate Spacing Issues
Have Confidence When you are planting, we know that you want to be confident that the population that is displayed on your monitor is actually what is being planted. In order to have this confidence, you need to be sure that all the seeds are being counted, and nothing else. But there is a problem; traditional
Work With Weather, Not Against It Every spring, you want to get your acres planted in a timely fashion, in the best conditions possible. But more often than we wish, the weather messes with our plans, and causes us to make trade offs. Plant ahead of the cold front, and sacrifice stand? Plant in soil that
Easy Row Shutoff Eliminating the double-planted areas of a field can provide significant seed savings. The more overlap in a field, the bigger the savings. But aren’t most clutch control systems a challenge to get set right? Not RowFlow. Combining seed sensor readings with being able to do calibrations before going to the field, RowFlow
Improve Planter Performance Where it Counts-In the Meter Ordinary finger meters have a hard time singulating, especially with a wide variety of seeds. They’ll miss one, then grab two, resulting in skips and doubles. That not only wastes seeds, but it also cuts your yield. Because the components all mesh perfectly, Precision Meters hold one
Simple Upgrade, Big Change in Your Stands You want a picket fence stand that doesn’t require a lot of headaches, but the adjustments you have to make on your meters are time-consuming and don’t give you the results you want. The eSet meter is a retrofit system that goes inside of a John Deere vacuum meter
No More Missed Yield Potential. Multi-Hybrid Planting is Here. You aim to maximize yield by planting the hybrid that will do the best, on average, across the whole field. But yield environments often change in the same field, calling for different hybrids in different areas. You’ve had to make compromises, but not anymore. With vSet
They Are Different, So Why Not Treat Them Differently? Not every acre you farm is the same. That is why you make different fertility plans for different fields, have different tillage practices, and even select different hybrids for different fields. But what about the variability that exists within a single field, even a single pass?
Save Time At Precision Planting, we know how important it is to get your planter ready for the spring. The problem is, that even with the most fine-toothed comb, there are still problems that can crop up during planting. A bearing that was good in the shop can go out in the field. A tensioner
