SeedMaster Brings Seeding Technology to New Granular Applicator

by

SeedMaster is bringing some of its seeding technology to the application of granular herbicides and fertilizer.

The Emerald Park, Saskatchewan-based company debuted its 70′ Nova Flex granular applicator bar at Canada’s Farm Progress Show ’16 in Regina.

As research manager Owen Kinch explains in this video, the unit connects to SeedMaster’s Nova cart, either tow behind or tow between.

“It allows a grower to utilize his existing piece of machinery and use it for spreading products, taking advantage of all the conveniences and technologies associated with the Nova cart,” he says.

The 70′ model has 40 openers spaced 1’9″ apart.
