SeedMaster - Opener
Ensuring the highest yield potential begins with a seeding system that guarantees healthy and uniform emergence. From the moment the first five active – hydraulic, ground-following opener was created in 1991, SeedMaster has been perfecting their technology with uncompromising goal of precisely delivering each seed to maximize germination. The opener is low maintenance and built to withstand a variety of terrain and soil types including rolling hills, clay, sand, and rocky land. Each opener works independently with on-row packing and maintenance-free pivot points.
Research at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada in Swift Current has found seeding into tall standing stubble generates a higher yield at an average of 17-31% over cultivated stubble. Grow with SeedMaster and see the results for yourself.
The dual-knife opener outperforms all other shank and disc models for seed and fertilizer placement with individual seed and fertilizer knives. The SeedMaster system creates a black strip with shallow, uniform seeding, giving producers the absolute best conditions for high germination rates. By incorporating new innovations and agronomic research into their engineering, SeedMaster leads the market in establishing a healthy start for each plant.
Research conducted by the AgTech Centre in Alberta proved that SeedMaster’s opener system places seed and fertilizer with precision to maximize emergence. This precise seed and fertilizer separation is made possible through SeedMaster’s side banding angled carbide seed knife, which delivers all fertilizer types with accuracy, including immobile nutrients such as phosphorus.
