Successful Solutions

Vance Johnson saw great results this year with the Yetter 2967 residue managers and optional SharkTooth® wheels. The combination attachment worked with his planter and powered through tough corn residue so he could plant 360 acres of sugar beets and 330 acres of soybeans. “I absolutely love them,” said Vance. “The teeth slice the stalks and keep rolling. They don’t push root balls in front of the planter, and I don’t have to stop moving to unplug the residue from the teeth.” Originally, Vance attached his Yetter 2967 residue managers and SharkTooth® wheels to a 12-row planter. When he upgraded to a 24-row unit, he did not want to leave his Yetter tools behind. Vance replaced half the managers that came on the new planter with his Yetter combination. “I had nothing but trouble with the new planter’s original residue managers, but the SharkTooth® wheels worked perfectly,” said Vance. “I plan on ordering 12 more this winter so I can upgrade my entire planter.” Vance originally picked Yetter products because he knew the company was associated with residue management and had a good reputation. He did not test the product beforehand, but took a “gamble” because he liked the backwards-angled tooth design. “I didn’t think they would clog like spoke wheel designs,” Vance said. Vance said his gamble paid off: “I’m going to get my money’s worth out of these!”
