Great Plains - Model YP2425A -60-foot Bulk-fill Planter
Great Plains proudly introduced the industry’s first 60` planter with the ability to plant on 20" and 30" row spacings. The YP-2425A features a floating-hitch design that provides the flexibility to meet challenging terrain. Yet, the 60` Yield-Pro model easily folds to a transport width of only 15` 3". The telescoping tongue retracts in field position for short headlands and outstanding maneuverability.
The Great Plains YP-2425A Planter is equipped with two 82-bushel poly hoppers. With its 164 bu. capacity, it can easily plant up to 160 acres of soybeans or 250 acres of corn in one fill. This increases efficiency by approximately 52% in soybeans and 12.8% in corn when compared to a planter with individual hoppers. Like all Yield-Pro® Planters, the YP-2425A uses air to gently move seed from the bulk hopper to the individual Air-Pro® meters mounted on field-proven 25 Series openers.
The YP-2425A row units can be equipped with a wide range of attachments, including coulters and row cleaners. Any way it’s equipped, the YP-2425A Yield-Pro® is designed to increase productivity and improve yields.
CENTRAL FILL
These units are fitted with two 82-bu. hoppers for maximum field efficiency, high productivity, and operator safety.
FERTILIZER CARTS (OPTIONAL)
Choose from three different optional fertilizer carts, available in 500-, 735-, or 1000-gallon (shown) configurations. All carts are 2-point mounted for excellent handling.
TELESCOPING TONGUE
The telescoping tongue puts the planter closer to the tractor in field position, allowing tighter turning on end rows.
25 SERIES ROW UNIT
The 25 Series row unit utilizes ductile cast parallel arms for long-term row unit stability. 15", 4mm blades turning on 205 triple-lip sealed bearings ensure long life and accurate seed depth. Blades are offset ½" to slice residue and form a perfect seed trench.
AIR-PRO® METERS
Offers the highest level of singulation on the market today, and achieves uniform spacing by “dead-dropping” the seed into the trench.
CANOLA SEED DISC
Canola producers will appreciate the precise singulation and spacing accuracy delivered by the canola seed disc from Great Plains. The specially-designed disc is part of our already extensive list of Air-Pro Meter Discs for seeding corn, soybeans, milo, sunflowers, cotton, wheat, and sugar beets.
HEMP SEED DISC
New, 5-cell and 30-cell hemp seed disc that meters seed accurately.
LARGE-CAPACITY BULK HOPPERS
YP-2425A Planters are equipped with two 82-bu. poly hoppers. With its 164 bu. capacity, it can plant up to 160 acres of soybeans or 250 acres of corn in one fill. This increases efficiency by approximately 52% in soybeans and 12.8% in corn when compared to individual hoppers.
NARROW ROW-SPACING OFFERED
