The no-till plot seeding drill has many options. It has dual fertilizer/seedboxes and cones, an air delivery system, a liquid application kit, variable row spacing, depth adjustments, and a dual knife opener system for precise fertilizer and seed placement. An RTK navigation system combined with auto steer directs where plots are placed with an accuracy within 1 inch.

Spring is in the air

I want to start by saying a big thank you to the exhibitors and to everyone who attended the trade show. The trade show was a great success, and a big part of that was because of Nolan Lavoie. He stepped up to the challenge, and with the help of the SARDA Ag Research staff and board members, we had a great show after a 4-year break. Rock Bremont did a great job documenting previous trade shows, giving Nolan a great foundation to start. On a different note, we are excited to move into our new building east of Donnelly Corner. Keep your eyes open for this summer’s crop walks with SARDA Ag Research and the Grande opening of the New SARDA Ag Research building.

I hope everyone has a great seeding, be safe and take care of each other.

Sincerely,

Simon Lavoie
