Fertilizer Injector For Air Seeders And Air Drills
I have a new product designed to be used on air seeders and air drills with double-shoot air systems. It's a fertilizer injector that enables a double-shoot air drill or seeder to place a portion of fertilizer with the seed, leaving a majority of fertilizer separate. It mounts on any double-shoot system using a 3-in. hose delivery system. It places a portion of your dry fertilizer without having a third tank, and can be adjusted from 0 to 25% of total fertilizer applied. Installation is easy and the system costs less than $10 per foot of drill (Canadian). It gives seedlings a jump start while leaving a majority of fertilizer separate from seed.
