Tools for improving depth control, singulation, seed environment and yield.

How we can help?

Spacing? Depth? Speed? Residue? Seedbed? Which problem is costing you the most during planting? Look here to uncover the cost of poor planter performance . . . and simple solutions to fix them.

Populations. Spacing. Placement.

Higher populations mean that the placement of every plant - every seed - is critical. Corn plants closer than 4" sense high population and react to the high stress environment. But with a little effort, today's planters can achieve spacing accuracy of 97% or more. Find out how.

Depth. Compaction. Residue.

Uniform emergence is the most important event in a cornfield's year. Plants that do not emerge within 48 hours after their neighbors turn into "weeds". Creating a good, clean seed V, getting seeds to the bottom of the trench and eliminating compaction can get plants off to a uniform start.

Measure. Monitor. Control.

Find and Fix planter problems before they cost you a dime. New monitoring and sensing systems can identify expensive issues you can't detect in the shop. And with new control systems, you can set and forget critical functions like downforce adjustments, VR populations and Row Control.

Pin & Clip

Attachment Method
All of the JD 7200/1700/XP/ProSeries Seed tubes that we will sell will need the Pin and Clip 700137 for attachment. Newer Deere planters do not have holes in the shank for the pin and clip. In these cases, we have a spring style pin.

BullsEye Seed Tube Installation Instructions

BullsEye Seed Tube Installation Instructions - Printable Version

  1. Remove the old seed tube from the row unit. Cut the zip ties that are holding the sensor to the tube.
  2. : Position the sensor onto the bulleye seed tube in the same position and direction that it was on the old tube. Use the zip ties provided with the new seed tube to secure the sensor to the seed tube.
  3. Make sure that the area around the pin that the seed tube hooks over is clean of dirt and debris. Install the Bullseye Seed Tube back into the row unit making sure that the hook is hooked over the pin. Secure the tube with the same pin and clip that held the old tube in place.
