Interesting Coulter that quite a bit of that Coulter looks like its made for bougault by pillar lasers . The bougault Coulter has independant ram to get it in the ground i only showed knockie the info on that coulter last week at the tff tent.
They have a low disturbance hoe coulter or one that looks like what we have on the pillar laser that separates the seed from the fert.

Doesn't look like the Bourgault has separate fert, unless you want mid row banding

dka, I have a 3 bin cart and have been sowing 140 kg/ha wheat mixed with 150 kg/ha DAP today. The products are mixed in the same tube.
Bourgault have a side band AHP (Anti Hair Pin) sowing boot similar to Pillar Lasers, this set up requires another feeding system as you can see from the Bourgault video with two Primary distributors.
The system has hydraulic pressure delivered to the wing lift rams and with compouind angle on the discs I don't think penetration will be an issue.

Interesting, thanks.Is this the same opener?

Think @Clive had an eco drill but it was wider than 3m.

Ok...not sure I'm convinced strip till is for me yet but I like the look of these on 5" spacings....what would a 3 or 4 metre cost?

Ant....

I think I read the 3m is £27k.

Seeding gear is way cheaper in UK than AUS....can you get these second hand...have looked at 750A JD as well...UK gear is better than USA gear for me...

9m but not sure if its the same as this new machine they have launched ?

good drill (the best tined drill IMO) but better suited to stronger land than mine I think

got some very impressive OSR and wheat from it at the moment

 

[Gregory Mac]

They are identical to mine.

I believe I recognise that machine, belonging to Ben Tait NZ.Ben built his own machine as I have done.

You are correct

During my recent visit to Saskatchewan Bourgault seeders/aircarts seem to be very popular,the even emergence from them is superb. If you go to "www.Parklandventures.com" and go to gallery you will see what I mean,they just need it to stop raining and warm up!!!!
