Floating residue managers with SharkTooth wheels

This Yetter grower installed 2967-097 Short Version TITAN™ Residue Managers with SharkTooth and Floater wheels. The units were used on Case 1250, 24-row planters. These units adjust from the side without tools.

The pics show planting beans into corn stalks at 8 mph. The weather had been wet, but these planting conditions were pretty good. As you can see, the residue managers were set perfectly—just moving residue, no dirt!

The grower was pleased how the units moved the residue while planting corn and beans into no-till and strip-till fields.

This grower’s planting setup also included a great timesaver—the new Yetter 1310 Maximizer Conveyor—to fill both Case planters. The power of this conveyor really helped speed up the refill process . . . from the time we pulled up to the planter until the time we drove away was less than 15 minutes. The grower got along very well with the new Maximizer model.

This video I took shows him filling the 1250 early in the season.
