MultiFlex Design for
Precision Planting
Since the seed opener operates independently
from press wheels it rides over rocks without damage at normal speeds--and
without lifting the press wheel off the ground. You maintain seed
planting depth except for the area of the rock and you maintain good seed
metering since the press wheel does not lose track.

No Seed Damage with
Gravity-Drop Hopper

Seeds feed under seed partition
Seeds are picked up as the seed plate turns.
Excess seed falls back.
Seeds drop through opening through the gentle
action of gravity. No brushes, knockers or fingers to damage seeds
Spout delivers accurately metered seeds one at a
time to Deep Vee sword opener for placement.
Gravity-drop, inclined plate hopper delivers
accurate plant population.
Deep Vee Opener for Good
Germination
Deep Vee seed opener promotes
fast germination, early emergence and uniform stands that harvest more
easily.
1. Deep Vee sword cuts smooth, even seed
trench and draws moisture to seed bed.
2. Seeds are placed to uniform depth
because seeds are trapped at the same depth in the Deep Vee
3. Fertilizer is placed to the side of the
seedbed where young roots will find early nourishment, but not before they
are vigorous enough to stand the fertilizer.
4. Press wheel firms the soil around the
seeds, but leaves a loose zone directly over the seed to ease emergence.
Air is eliminated from the seedbed.
Seeds are placed at uniform
depth in moist soil, firmly covered with no air in the seedbed and loose
soil zone over the seeds.
