Dawn Pluribus Strip-Till Unit
Perfect spring or fall whether running in wheat straw, bean stubble or standing corn stalks, the Dawn Pluribus strip-till unit is the right tool for the job. Apply any combination of liquid or dry fertilizers. Stay well ahead of your planter by running up to 10 mph, with as little as 10 horsepower per row. Plant into a clean, warm, dry, almost conventional-like strip, yet leave all residue on the surface. Make money, instead of tying up nitrogen. With less fuel, time, fertilizer, equipment and moisture loss, it all adds up to more profit in your pocket.

Environmental Tillage Systems Soil Warrior
Environmental Tillage Systems Soil Warrior is referred to by advocates as the premier “zone-till” system. Soil Warrior provides targeted seed zone preparation, while blending fertilizer throughout the root zone, and prepares the soil for great seed emergence. The Soil Warrior leaves the majority of the soil naturally mulched and untouched each year. Most no-till and strip-tillage systems rely heavily on knives or shanks. Soil Warrior’s patented rolling cog wheel fractures soil compaction in a narrow zone, providing highly effective, low-impact soil treatment in the plant’s growth zone.

Great Plains Mfg. Nutri-Pro®
Great Plains’ innovative Nutri-Pro® Precision models are designed to apply liquid fertilizer while simultaneously removing residue and vertically strip-tilling the planting zone, promoting fast, even emergence in the newly cleaned, warmed and fertile seedbed. They allow the producer to pre-apply liquid fertilizer in the spring – just prior to planting – replacing traditional methods of applying nutrients in the fall to eliminate winter nitrogen losses. Patent-pending Quik-Tach™ Coulters allow the three-coulter Nutri-Pro Precision models to be easily converted from pre-apply to sidedress so fertilizer can be applied after the plants have emerged, ensuring nutrients reach the plant directly for maximum benefit and reduced waste.
