Subject: RE: Best Dual Purpose Closing Wheels for Corn Planter


Missouri
I haven't seen better performance from a dual purpose closing wheel than the standard rubber tire. There are options that can have improved performance in no-till operation, but what they gain in no-till is often less than they loose in conventional tillage. Spiked closing wheels are especially useless in conventional tillage.

I think the dawn curvetine looks like a promising idea that might improve no till performance, without a substantial reduction in performance in tillage, but I haven't had the opportunity to try one.
