HUTCHINSON, KS - Two
models of a new flexible grain drill
designed for use in reduced tillage
seedbeds have been introduced by
Krause Plow Corporation, a 68-
year old manufacturer of con
servation tillage equipment.
“As tillage specialists, we know
what type of field surface will be
left by any given type of reduced
tillage implement,” explains
Floyd Barkman, Krause Ad
vertising and Sale Promotion
Manager. “Consequently, we have
taken that knowledge one step
further, and designed a grain drill
compatible with those field con
ditions. The resulting grain drill is
an ideal addition to the Krause
Profit-Till System.
The two models in the new 5000
Series flexible drill include one
with hoe openers and another with
double disc openers.
This new drill features an 8”
square tube main frame and a
unique 15 foot long 7” square tube
telescoping hitch.
The double disc version, Model
5130, is available with a unique
opener option for planting
precision: walking tandem wheels.
