WATCH THE VIDEO Precision Planting’s goal of bringing accessible technology to growers has resulted in a new planting system called CornerStone. “We want to help farmers overcome unique challenges they have on their operation, achieve unique goals they have and provide them with a flexible factory planting system,” Caleb Schleder, director of technical services and support with Precision Planting, told the Farms.com Precision Ag Digital Digest. The CornerStone system includes everything but the bar. This means it fits somewhere in between new and used equipment. “You can bring your own bar to the table and have access to the latest and greatest technology without the investment of a new piece of iron,” Schleder said. “The CornerStone planting system can be bolted onto any standard-height 7x7 planter bar.” The planting system is equipped for crops like corn, soybeans, canola, sunflowers, cotton and peanuts. “Basically anything a farmer wants to singulate,” Schleder said. CornerStone comes standard with multiple features. These include the FurrowForce mounting interface, the DuraWear gauge wheel arm and parallel arm pivot brushing systems and heavy duty 15” opening discs with optimized spindle angle and wear-out indicator. It also comes with a trailing gauge wheel design, which helps performance, Schleder said.
