IT’S SEED DRILL SEASON!

Posted on September 3, 2020 at 1:12 PM by Allan Warren

Seed DrillAre you considering seeding a cover crop or renovating your pasture this fall? Don’t forget PCD has just the tool for the job! Our Land Pride 606NT pull-type, no-till seed drill is available for landowners to borrow again this fall. Now in its third year, we have made one important change to our drill program. There is now a delivery fee for using the drill to cover the costs of having Jennings Equipment deliver and pick up the drill from your farm. See our drill website page for fees associated with various delivery locations. Our seed drill rental calendar books up quickly during the fall season—don’t hesitate to call and make your reservation.

PCD also has cost share funds available for no-till seedings completed with the drill. If your project does not involve tillage for seedbed preparation, and the field will not be tilled for a full two years after seeding, ask us about these funds that will reimburse you at $28/acre.
