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.
The rental fee for using the drill is the delivery fee charged by Jennings Equipment of Puyallup to drop off and pick up the drill from your farm. See below for Jennings delivery fees for select cities
Buckley: $222 Gig Harbor: $244 Orting, Puyallup, Sumner, Tacoma: $178
Roy, Graham: $266 Eatonville: $360
