Our new "double shoot" point opener lets you convert conventional air drills, air seeders, or hoe drills to one-pass seed and fertilizer units. It makes two separate "V" furrows side by side for seed and fertilizer. Fertilizer is placed 1 in. below and 1 in. to the side of the seed.
The opener consists of a replaceable chrome "V" point that's secured with a roll pin, the main body of the point which bolts to the existing shank, and a fertilizer knife body that bolts onto the side of the opener. The side-mounted fertilizer knife, which also has a replaceable point, can be removed when all you want to do is plant seed. Metal delivery tubes mount on back of the shank. It's available in two models. One model is designed for air seeders and sells for $64.90. The other model is designed for hoe drills and sells for $49.90 (Canadian).
