Kit Improves Performance Of Deere Planters

Kit Improves Performance Of Deere Planters PLANTERS Planters 21-3-26 You can improve the performance of your Deere Max-Emerge planter with this new kit from the McMan Corporation of Bird Island, Minn. The "Posi-Plant" kit consists of a heavy-duty seed shoe and pair of disk scrapers that run inside the disk blade. Because the seed shoe runs slightly below the level of the disk opener, it creates a true V-shaped trench, instead of leaving a "W" of soil in the bottom between disk blade tracks. The result is more uniform depth and seed-to-soil contact for a better stand, the company says. It's also ideal for small-seeded crops such as sugar beets. Sells for $65 per row.
