Drop Seeder / spreader
Typical of all the tools we carry from R2, this is a very well-built implement. This seeder / spreader is designed for seeding lawns, cover-crop, or other full-width dense seeding operations OR it can be used as a drop-spreader of granulated fertilizer or similar material.
It features an expanded-mesh roller in the rear, which helps press the seed/fertilizer into the soil a bit and also drives the agitator shaft in the hopper via a no-slippage roller chain.
Drop orifices (holes) are fully adjustable in size (via a sliding shutter design) to accommodate a wide variety of seed/material sizes…we tested it with Buckwheat, which is a fairly irregular size seed, and it performed extremely well.
Hole “shutter” also closes quickly to allow transport of the machine without dropping material.
It even has an adjustable full-width brush running over the top of the mesh-roller to keep it clean of dirt (which would pick up seed).
Drop holes about 1.25” apart, full width 39”.
