Case IH Updates Precision Air 5 Series Air Carts and Flex Hoe 900 Air Drills with Versatile New Features

Mar 02, 2023

Case IH recently introduced new productivity-boosting features to its Precision Air^™5 Series air carts and Flex Hoe^™ 900 air drills. Precision Air 5 Series carts help producers make the most of short seeding windows, while Flex Hoe air drills help them efficiently seed small grain in any ground conditions. New configurations, options and other features enhance productivity and versatility.

Producers can also boost their flexibility with liquid-fertilizer configurations for Precision Air 5 Series air carts. The liquid-ready tank includes a product lid and overflow line, 3-foot bottom suction port, tank rinse nozzle and site gauge.

The roller lineup has also been expanded to allow growers to plant almost any seed at any rate. The new sunflower roller applies oil-type sunflower seed at the consistency growers need. In addition, the fill system on the auxiliary tank has been redesigned with a gravity system, creating a faster, more intuitive and more uniform filling.

“These updates help producers get the most of every plant’s potential through highly accurate fertilizer and seed placement,” said Trent Nowosad, Case IH Seeding Marketing Manager. “Additional configurations and options add more versatility for a variety of crops and fertilizers.”

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.
