Yield-Increasing Options Row-Pro™ optional ROW-PRO™ - Is a small pneumatic cylinder attached to the parallel linkage and controlled by the IntelliAg™ Controller. A load sensor in the side depth wheel sends down-pressure measurements to the monitor, which adds or subtracts air pressure from the cylinder, maintaining consistent pressure on the side depth wheels to minimize sidewall smearing and ensure even emergence and good plant vigor. Swath Command™ optional SWATH COMMAND™ - Utilizes GPS positioning to automatically turn on and off row units, saving costly over-seeding and eliminating...

25 Series Row Unit Some innovations are simply timeless… which is certainly the case with the Great Plains 25 Series Opener. The 25 Series Row Unit was designed to plant more accurately, last longer, and be easier to maintain than the competition. Its parallel linkage design keeps the row unit in the optimal planting position to provide precise seed placement to maximize yield potential. The opener’s body and cast iron parallel arms are narrower, yet stronger, than conventional 30" openers. The narrow profile allows this row unit to plant twin-row crops with each pair only 8" apart. It can...
