AIR DRILLS FOR EVERY SEEDING STYLE Knowing the key seeding styles is the first step to deciding on the seeding tool and openers that are right for you. Here are your options: HA double-shoot opener places seed and fertilizer on separate planes and at separate depths in a single operation. Placement is either between the rows, as a side band or as a paired row configuration, followed Double- by an on-row press wheel. ■ Low to moderate soil disturbance with low residue disturbance. ■ Accurate placement of fertilizer in a row separate from the seed allows high fertilizer rates...

SEED AND FERTILIZER PLACEMENT DETERMINE SUCCESS Accurate seed and fertilizer placement means higher yield. It’s that simple. And that’s why successful seeding depends on finding the right opener. From low disturbance single-shoot to double-shoot, no matter what your seeding style, it all comes down to Case IH openers. Stealth® Openers The Stealth opener is a modular system that adds versatility to your row seeding. A choice of tips or attachments are mounted on the main body to customize your system. Stealth openers are manufactured with a process that creates Austempered Ductile Iron (ADI)...

Stealth openers use replaceable tips that work for both narrow row and spread-row seeding styles. Stealth double-shoot attachments allow one-pass placement of seed and fertilizer. Seed/fertilizer separation prevents seedling damage. Knife Tips ■ Low soil disturbance. ■ Very narrow spread of 7 8 to 1 inch. / ■ For use with any press wheel. ■ Heavy-duty, gumbo or carbide tips match soil conditions. Spread Tips ■ Designed for low disturbance seeding. ■ Wider product spread allows more fertilizer to be placed with the seed. ■ Spread tips are available in 3-, 4- or 5-inch sizes. ■ For use with...

Use anhydrous fertilizers safely and profitably. 8

SEED PROFITABLY WITH ANHYDROUS FERTILIZER If properly applied, all commonly used nitrogen sources are equally effective. Once in the ground, all N fertilizers undergo conversion through soil processes into the same nitrate and nitrite ions that plants need to thrive. Option 1: Side banding For paired row banding and side banding, Stealth openers use rubber grommets to insulate the cast opener from the cold NH3 gas or liquid. This reduces freezing of the opener, which then reduces build-up of frost and mud. NH3 fertilizer has advantages in terms of cost, service and seeding efficiency....

PACKING SYSTEMS GIVE YOU FAST, EVEN GERMINATION A wide range of packing choices allows you to equip the ATX700 and ATX400 air drills with on-row packing performance. By matching the press wheels to your seed spread and soil type, you have the best opportunity for fast, even germination. In-line Gang Packing Systems Steel press wheels are used in abrasive sandy and rocky conditions. A V-profile concentrates packing pressure onto a smaller area for higher pressure on the seed. The shape of the furrow also provides protection from wind and water erosion. 3 1 2 -inch steel wheels work well with...

HOW THE CASE IH AIR SYSTEM WORKS The air distribution system on all Case IH air carts consists of patented downdraft meter technology that divides product into equal sections – one for each primary line. Air and product are mixed in a parallel flow, allowing smooth transition from the meter box to the distribution system. An agitator bar prevents bridging, providing a constant density and supply of product to the meter roller. The Case IH system is power-efficient and easily adapts to various crops and large air seeding tools. Single-shoot means one or more products mixed together in a...
