Partnership with Montag Manufacturing Supports Tillage and Seeding in One Pass

Great Plains Ag has announced the launch of its latest innovation, the Turbo-Seeder PLUS, created through a partnership with Montag Manufacturing, known for their leading dry metering systems.  

This new product is designed to make farming more efficient by combining cover crop seeding and tillage into a single pass. 

Farms.com met with Tony Wisker, vice president of sales and marketing with Great Plains Ag, to learn more about this new product and partnership with Montag. 

The Turbo-Seeder PLUS is available in three different sizes, offering flexibility for various farming operations. 

Two of these sizes are designed to mount directly onto Great Plains’ Turbo-Max or Terra-Max products. This setup allows for simultaneous tillage and seeding, saving both time and effort. 

For farmers needing larger capacity, a six-ton cart version is also available. This cart pulls behind the implement and provides the same efficient seeding experience for broader field operations. 

According to Great Plains, this system uses Montag’s top-rated dry metering technology, considered the best in the marketplace. It ensures accurate seed placement, reducing waste and improving crop establishment.  

This makes it especially effective for cover crop applications, which are crucial for improving soil health and reducing erosion. 

The Turbo-Seeder PLUS is built for convenience and performance. 

Farmers can now till and seed their fields in one go, reducing labor costs and fuel consumption. The equipment is ideal for those looking to maximize productivity during planting seasons.

A chain harrow is a game changer

Video: A chain harrow is a game changer

Utilizing a rotational grazing method on our farmstead with our sheep helps to let the pasture/paddocks rest. We also just invested in a chain harrow to allow us to drag the paddocks our sheep just left to break up and spread their manure around, dethatch thicker grass areas, and to rough up bare dirt areas to all for a better seed to soil contact if we overseed that paddock. This was our first time really using the chain harrow besides initially testing it out. We are very impressed with the work it did and how and area that was majority dirt, could be roughed up before reseeding.

Did you know we also operate a small business on the homestead. We make homemade, handcrafted soaps, shampoo bars, hair and beard products in addition to offering our pasture raised pork, lamb, and 100% raw honey. You can find out more about our products and ingredients by visiting our website at www.mimiandpoppysplace.com. There you can shop our products and sign up for our monthly newsletter that highlights a soap or ingredient, gives monthly updates about the homestead, and also lists the markets, festivals, and events we’ll be attending that month.
