Seed Drill

We have a Land Pride 606NT pull-type, no-till drill available to rent. At a 6 ft. working width with optional capacities for native grass and small seeds, the drill is ideal for any cover crop or pasture renovation application if you have a minimum 40 HP tractor with rear remote hydraulics to run it.

Rental

We require borrowers to attend one of our no-till drill workshops that are held throughout the year and learn the basics of operating the drill. Or you can watch the below video of a recorded workshop and take our short operators test.
