Many of you will argue that the planter is the most important piece of equipment on your farm. You only get one chance each year to get your crop in the ground and get it right. The planter is under pressure not only to deliver the seed to the soil as precisely as possible, but also to perform in an increasingly short planting window.
For complete planter control, any of the SeedCommand products below can be added individually to the planter or can be combined to maximize planter performance.
SureSpeed®
SureSpeed is a complete high-speed, high-accuracy planting system with superior performance at any speed up to 12 mph. This integrated seed metering and delivery system provides 99%+ singulation and the lowest seed delivery in the industry for optimal seed placement. Accuracy is a priority; speed is a bonus.
Paired with Ag Leader’s hydraulic downforce solution, SureForce®, the system provides the highest available force capacity on the market to maintain consistent ground contact and smooth row unit ride with increasing speed in varying conditions.
The benefits of SureSpeed include:
- Aftermarket solution. With solutions for various makes and models of box hopper and bulk fill planters, the system gives your planter higher accuracy at high speeds.
- Singulation and spacing. Unique meter design and controlled transfer of seeds from meter to delivery device maximizes singulation and ensures perfect spacing at all speeds up to 12 mph.
- Performance. The flighted delivery belt has the lowest release point in the industry for consistent spacing at any speed.
- Maintenance. Low maintenance system. No tools required.
SureDrive®
With SureDrive, you don’t need a new planter or new meters. . . just powerful meter control to whip your existing planter into shape. SureDrive offers an electric planter meter drive system allowing customers to eliminate chains, bearings, and shafts while gaining precise meter control. Since SureDrive and SureForce share the same electronics, it is easy to start with one and add the other later.
The benefits of SureDrive include:
- Individual shutoff control. Built-in section control where the seed meter stops at previously planted areas, field boundaries, etc.
- Variable rate. No more gaps leaving the headlands and quickly adjust to proper planting populations. You can even vary your population by grouping, which is perfect for seed corn producers.
- Turn compensation. The meter speed automatically varies across the width of the planter for consistent seed placement around turns and curves.
- Planter monitoring
SureForce®
SureForce is Ag Leader’s hydraulic downforce solution that ensures seeds make the ideal contact with soil to get off to the best start. No longer just for no-till or continuous corn fields, SureForce provides agronomic gains for every farm.
The benefits of SureForce include:
- Row-by-row hydraulic downforce with uplift
- Gauge wheel and downforce applied mapping
- Can be used with SureDrive and clutches
- Planter monitoring
- Section control with SureStop clutches sold separately.
SureStop®
A legacy SeedCommand product SureStop features:
- Section (clutch) control
- Planter monitoring
