John Deere working Woods Precision Super Seeder...Over seeding fall pastures
What happens here
The presenter provides a detailed explanation of the Woods Precision Super Seeder PSS72. It features three hoppers: a front hopper for small seeds like clover, a middle hopper for larger seeds like contractor's mix (fescue and annual ryegrass), and a large rear hopper for native grass seeds. The seeder also has front spiked rollers to 'tear up' the ground, allowing seeds to fall in, and a rear cultipacker to press the seeds into the soil for good seed-to-soil contact. The overall design aims for efficient overseeding or new pasture establishment without extensive tilling.
Goal: Learn about the seeder's hoppers, rollers, and packing mechanisms.
