More than ever, your meter needs to be carefully calibrated to minimize skips and doubles and restore ears in your fields. In 100 side-by-side trials over three years, a major seed company proved that
annual meter calibration adds an average of 5.7 bushels per acre. As your MeterMax representative, we’re trained and equipped to do it right, so come in with your meters and seed samples and leave with precisely calibrated instruments that will dramatically increase your accuracy and yield.
BullsEye
® seed tubes represent a technological revolution that leads to better spacing, and better spacing leads to bigger yields. BullsEyes move the sensor out of the way to stop the spotty spacing that results when seeds hit it and bounce their way down the tube. Special nylon bodies speed seeds on their way. And tungsten carbide tips stop opener damage, so your tubes last far longer and your replacement costs plummet.
By setting seed at the right depth and creating consistent seed-to-soil contact, Keeton Seed Firmers® produce uniform emergence and eliminate nubbins.
By reducing skips and doubles, the Precision Meter™ boosts seed spacing accuracy by 2% or more over other finger meters. Independent tests prove that this optimum seed spacing adds 6 bushels – or $15 – per acre. Now
that’s a payoff.20/20 SeedSense
® gives you more information than you can get anywhere else so you can come closer to planting perfection that ever before. It shows you not just population but singulation. Not just speed but row unit ride, so you can precisely set speed.20/20 AirForce™ draws on the 20/20 SeedSense® system’s measurement of ground contact and total row unit weight to make the adjustments needed to maintain constant, ideal down force regardless of the soil conditions.
20/20 RowFlow™ combines with 20/20 SeedSense® to provide automatic control of variable rate drive systems (to change plant populations) and swath control (to shut off individual rows or sections of the planter).
Precision Planting’s new
CleanSweep makes the challenge of getting proper force on your row cleaners simple, from the cab, on the go. So proper seedbed preparation – more bushels, more money – is a snap.
