Each run for seed , 4 10ft sections for the liquid .

Some of the most consistent canola establishments in this area again came from drills with Techno tills .

Would the technotill work in sticky clay?

Some very sticky clay here and it seems always good . About 4 units running in this area with them on .

how well does the technotill close over top of the fertilizer, and how much soil typically ends up over top of the fert?

I don’t know exactly, but they can be adjusted

Still one of my favourite drills in the area is a flexi coil cultivator , refitted to 15 in space with a Valmar for the canola and a liquid set up. Great establishment almost always , accurate and less than half the cost of a comparable size drill .

generally eliminates the preseed burn... few things resistant to steel. Perhaps they would go through last years stubble fairly well, but the few guys that are using them here are on chemfallow, and you had better have damned good active suspensions on all your equipment, or at least wear spurs on your work boots to dig into the side of the seat.
