We're this close! Let's put the tractor to work!

What happens here

The farmer details the different compartments (hoppers) of the Woods PSS72 seed drill. The first, smaller hopper is for small seeds like clover. The second hopper is for cool-season grasses and cereal grains, such as the 80/20 fescue/ryegrass mix he plans to use. He clarifies that there's also a summer contractor's mix with millet for areas that need to grow on rock. The third, larger hopper is for native grasses with bigger seeds, which will not be used today. He explains his strategy of using clover to fix nitrogen in the soil, avoiding chemical fertilizers except for specific compacted pond areas.

Goal: The farmer explains the different hoppers on the Woods PSS72 seed drill, which are designed for various seed types, and discusses the plans for clover and grass seed mixtures.
