- 2022 was substantially better than 2021. Hope you all enjoy!
Row spacing had significant effects on the yield of CDC Go. 15” rows led to a 3% reduction in yield from 84.1 bu ac-1 to 81.8 bu ac-1.
Even with a yield loss on the wheat. 15 Inch row spacing on the Barley, Canola and peas had no effect of yield. The pros outperform the cons when it comes to the seed master Ultra SR drill. The residue management system gave us incredible emergence and a nice clean field finish. The seed placement was perfect, we used under 40% engine load, changing product was easy - all the little things add up. The whole concept is a simple and innovative evolution in seeding.
Check out the results on Plot2Farm for the seed master for the wheat comparing 15 inch spacing to 7.5 inch row spacing.

Awesome mate. Keep up the good work
Amazing doing great 👍 👏 🙌 👌
Legend.
We just purchased the same drill, was concerned about yield decrease in wheat. On our farm it would equal about 17,000 dollars decrease on production. Not including protein premium.
Interested to know if the canola yields were increased on 15" spacing to make up the difference from lost production on your wheat.
For us it would take 15 years at $17k to make it worth while for us to purchase a drill on 12" spacing. Mind you a drill on 12" spacing would require us to purchase a higher hp tractor, with higher hydraulic flow. Which in turn would burn more fuel and cost more per hour to operate. So if you add the purchase of a newer tractor it would be 30 years or more to see a return on a different drill and different tractor.
Curious to hear your opinion with the new Ultra SR on your farm and if it has a long term role in your operation.
Growth regulators are not expensive especially when you see the price of not doing it. A yield hit of probably somewhere in the vicinity of 30% plus the extra disease pressure incurred when it goes down like that makes straw shortener an absolute no brainer. Cycocel, Terpel and Trexel which is a generic of Moddus are other options.
