Farm Equipment
Industry Outlook: How Does Your Dealership Stack Up?
In this installment of the shared Farm Equipment and No-Till Farmer webinar series sponsored by Martin Industries, Phil Needham, owner of Needham Ag Technologies, discussed how growers and dealers can choose the right no-till attachments based on the grower's soils and conditions. Phil will specifically address:
How row cleaners can clear residue, accelerate soil warming and improve row unit ride quality and final yield potential
Why placing nitrogen and/or phosphorus in a band alongside the row and below the seed depth can help boost early plant health, especially under stress conditions
How to improve seed firming to press seeds down into moisture, especially in loose or drier soils
Which closing wheels perform the best in which conditions
Phil’s presentation was followed by a Q&A session.
