“No two farming operations are exactly alike and we want to offer coulter blades that come the closest to matching the customer’s needs,” said Yetter Product Development spokesperson Don Bunnell. Differing soil types and residue conditions require the proper coulter blade match. Coulter blade applications can be customized from the selection offered by Yetter Manufacturing Company to fit the needs of individual farming operations. The 25 multi-wave coulter blade, in combination with seeding openers, creates an ideal seed environment by first cutting any residue that is present, then providing very fine tilth for seed trench closing. This makes the 25 multi-wave blade the best coulter selection for tight soil conditions that are hard for closing wheels to close. The 25 multi-waves formed into the outer diameter of the blade are what do the work. Each blade is sensitive to ground speed and soil depth. More aggressive soil disruption occurs at faster ground speeds and deeper depth of operation. Used on coulters ahead of fertilizer shanks, the 25 multi-wave blade saves time and money. As the blade digs in to cut crop residue, a wide slot is opened for the fertilizer shank, improving residue flow around the shank while reducing implement draft. In addition to this new offering, several other coulter blades are available to choose from. To help in the coulter blade selection process a comprehensive chart is available from Yetter Manufacturing detailing features, uses, soil conditions, and end results for each blade type. Bunnell went on to say, “Our goal is to help customers remove the guesswork in their coulter blade selection. The right blade selection can mean the difference between success and failure.” This chart is available in the Yetter Leading Edge Product Selection Guide and on the Yetter website at yetterco.com Yetter Manufacturing Company offers the agricultural community over 70 years of profitable solutions for everyday farming problems. |
