C LOSING W H E E L S The Finishing Touch All the work you put into planter setup and performance—not to mention seed, fertilizer, and chemical programs—could be useless if your seed trench is not properly closed. Yetter worked with our customers to develop the Twister Closing Wheels for no-till, minimum tillage, and conventionally tilled fields. Their twistedspike design breaks up the sidewall and closes the seed slot, setting the stage for more even emergence. 6200 TWISTER POLY CLOSING WHEEL Crumbles and firms soil at the same time » Twisted spikes enhance seed-tosoil contact and help...

C LO S I N G W HEELS Weather and field conditions change every year, and Twister Closing Wheels are a key component for even emergence. Real World Solutions Steve Pitstick - Illinois "I was able to close the furrow in heavy, no-till soybean residue, which helped ensure near-perfect emergence. This resulted in my highest no-till corn yields to date. Another bonus was being able to use this closing wheel in conventional till." The twisted-spike design of 6200 Twister Closing Wheels is key to breaking down sidewall compaction caused by planter opener discs. The spikes close and firm soil over...

P L ANTING AT TAC H M E NT S TrackTill®: Proven to Increase Yields Studies have shown that compaction caused by planter and tractor wheels, also known as "the pinch-row effect," can greatly reduce yields in the center rows. An average farm can lose up to 15 bushels per acre due to this pinchrow compaction. TrackTill uses its specially designed arrangement of 10-inch, ground-driven tines to eliminate this compacted area, helping you maximize root development. 9010 TRACKTILL Eliminate pinch-row compaction and achieve higher yields » 10" ground-driven tines fracture compacted soil tracks from...
