2020 Great Plains 4-Row Pull-Type YP-425A

2020 Great Plains 4-Row Pull-Type YP-425A

Our 4-, 6-, 8-, and 10-Row Yield-Pro® Planters give smaller farmers access to the same yield-increasing technologies found in larger planters. Offered in four sizes, these compact planters are designed around the Air-Pro® metering system, delivering a new level of spacing and seed placement accuracy.

For added versatility, the 4-, 6-, and 8-Row Yield-Pro Planters can be configured with either standard single rows or the innovative twin-row design on 30", 36", 38", or 40" spacing. The new 10-row model is available in single row 22" and 30" spacings only. Plus, all models are available in either 3-point mounted or pull-type configurations.

Like their larger Yield-Pro counterparts, the 4-, 6-, 8-, and 10-row models each utilize 25 Series row units for greater accuracy, longer life, and easier maintenance than most competitive row units. Not only does the unit come with a broad selection of clear seed discs to handle a variety of different seeds, but customers also have a choice of closer wheels to match every operation and planting style. A hydraulic fan provides positive air to the Air-Pro meters for exceptional accuracy. Four-inch manifolds and proportional metering rings ensure the same pressure to each row unit without the worry of air leaks.

Features may include:

• 1.6 bu./row hoppers on twin-row models and 3.0 bu./row hoppers on single-row models.

• A single 6" fan is used for Air-Pro Meter pressurization, requiring only two hoses that hook to a remote outlet. No case drain or motor return required.

• Choose 3-point mounted or pull-type configurations. Pull-type machines can be optioned with either liquid or dry fertilizer.

• New, 5-cell and 30-cell hemp seed disc that meters seed accurately.

• Choose (from left) cast for sticky Delta soils; wedge to pinch the seed trench together while providing a wide footprint; 1"x12" double-V for all-around performance; or spider wheels with drag chains for aggressively closing the seed trench.

• Canola producers will appreciate the precise singulation and spacing accuracy delivered by the canola seed disc from Great Plains. The specially-designed disc is part of our already extensive list of Air-Pro® Meter Discs for seeding corn, soybeans, milo, sunflowers, cotton, wheat, and sugar beets.

• Multiple row spacings are available to match a variety of needs, including 30", 36", 38", and 40" single- or twin-row configurations.

• This simple, positive air pressure meter offers the highest level of singulation on the market today, and achieves uniform spacing by “dead-dropping” seed into the patented Clear-Shot® seed tube. Exhaust is discharged close to and directly towards the ground, not up into the atmosphere, earning the Bee-Friendly™ title. Gentle on seeds, it is more efficient than a vacuum meter and requires less maintenance.

• The 25 Series row unit utilizes ductile cast parallel arms for long-term row unit stability. 15", 4mm blades turning on 205 triple-lip seal bearings ensure long life and accurate seed depth. Blades are offset ½" to slice residue and form a perfect seed trench.
