I saw this running in a field beside the hwy. in Ark, yesterday. It was being demo-ed by a salesman on a local farm....it’s a single pass piece of equip....never seen anything like it...you can run it behind a combine in corn stalks or any type stubble, and it leaves the field, looking like its been gone over about five times with a disc and harrow.
Running at 10 mph, and didn’t leave a blade of grass....air seeder and chemical tank that can be attached....you can plant soybeans, etc., right behind the combine in the straw, and it gets a perfect stand and looks like a million dollar job!!

German design and engineering....pretty pricey at $65K, but does a great job and conserves energy with fewer passes over your field.

They need to tie that to a chinook. Then it would look more dangerous.

WTF is a Chinook???

OH! You mean "Shithook"! Cool bird ... rode in one quite often. Talk about a dang static producer! Those things would knock you on your ASS if you weren't grounded! You may skip the static wand ONCE ... but I'll guarandamntee you, you won't do it twice! ;)
