Tough residue management for narrow rows

This grower from West Central Illinois used 2967-013 TITAN™ Residue Managers on a 36-row 20-inch John Deere planter. He used them to move the residue and kick dirt clods out from in front of his disc openers. He used to plant corn in the river bottoms of Illinois.

This customer practices mostly conventional till, so he really used the residue managers to kick the clods out of the way to prep an even seed bed. While I was there, the grower was about half done with corn planting, and was covering ground quickly.
