[QUOTE="warksfarmer, post: 7873538, member: 192"] Having owned a claydon and sabre tine and now a Triton, there really is no comparison between them. The claydon leaves seed on the surface in clay soils. Yes I know the claydons have marketed their drill on their own clay soil farm. The problem is it’s the best clay soil in the country and not heavy. It does a good job there. The sabre tine did a better job because the tines were narrow and to be fair it did a good job. Seeding depth wasn’t great. The triton places the seed which can vary depending on soil type but the closing blades cover it in ALL scenarios. I’ve said this many times but we started playing with direct drilling in the early 90’s with a 750. Then used a cross slot, Moore, vaderstad, Horsch, claydon, weaving and now Triton. Nothing covers the seed like a Triton. You struggle to find seed on the surface if I’m being honest. [/QUOTE]
