So if you are currently applying with shank openers at 4 mph and ground speed doubles with single disc openers your support system may not be able to keep up. Ground speeds to 12 mph are possible with long wheel base tractors and correct single disc opener selection. 60 foot tool bars are possible with the 2KD system utilizing two 1450 gallon trailer tanks either in twin or tandem. The key is to plan ahead for high production at low cost per acre. Cost per acre goes up if you can not get the bottom outlet tanks to the site.
Safety improves with larger tanks and bottom outlet valves.
Contact your fertilizer dealer to make certain of the bottom outlet valves in the tanks and of the need to improve delivery of bottom outlet tanks about once every hour. And cold weather performance dramatically improves. Yetter is the number one manufacturer of single disc openers They have achieved a superior position in the market.
