Finally a great stretch of weather to get seed in the ground! There are a few places that are still wet from downpours last Saturday, but overall I would say our area is 3/4 finished as of this morning. Southern Indiana and several parts of Illinois are side dressing corn already which still amazes me given our seeds haven't sprouted yet. We spent much of this week doing planter startups getting things adjusted just right and planting the way they should. We had several shop guys out this week to get their own corn planted. We always allow them to take plenty of time off for farming. Next up is side dress. Be sure to look that unit over and see what it is you may need: knives, blades etc.
Be sure to tune into our YouTube Channel. Have a great weekend, and feel free to call 419-953-8500.
This Fast A26 was loaded yesterday for delivery to Illinois where corn is already 3 leaf!
This week we got plenty of time in the field. Here is a 1760 we put new seed disk openers, closing wheels, and fertilizer system on.
In the video below, we went to the field with a 1760 with new Yetter closing wheels, row cleaners, and Totally Tubular fertilizer units.

Side Dress Season is Next, Are You Ready?
We have several applicators still in stock, 60', 40' new or used. But if you aren't looking to upgrade applicators, you should definitely be looking at some add on upgrades such as our Triple Threat fertilizer system or a Yetter N Keeper sealer system to keep that N where you put it. Of course we also stock knives and blades for your applicator as well. Now is the time. Call today before you can row the corn.
