The NTS26 Series No-Till Seeder is equipped with a main and small seed box, making quick work of renovating pastures, reclaiming rights-of-way, and planting food plots. 
Metering is ground-driven by the rear packer-roller. The NTS’s tillage aggressiveness is controlled by angling the front spiked rollers. Protected by a metal wind shield, seed is directed to the ground below and gently pressed into the soil with the rear cast packer. 
Rental Cost is $10.00 per acre for all uses, with a minimum charge of $100.
Check the availability of our no-till drill on the calendar then call our office to be added to the schedule.
