Subject: RE: Bourgault or Deere air seeder


Dagmar, MT
I have some experience with bourgault not so much with JD. One problem with canola & bourgault carts is the highly inefficient air system. Cleanout is much easier when it meters into one 6" tube but then the fan has to push product up to those tall manifolds on the drill. Had to run the fan way higher than I'd like. The plastic meter augers are absolute crap. If you do go with bourgault make sure to get the stainless steel ones. In the last 2 yrs we've been stuck at least a dozen times. Unhook from drill, pull ahead, drag the 3" rope into place and yank the drill out. I can do this in less than 15 minutes. It would be quite the ordeal if you had a tbt cart.
