MeterMax* System - How Spacing Affects Yield

Picture-perfect stands pay
Evenly-spaced plants are the foundation for bigger yields. Why? Because even spacing reduces competition between plants and maximizes ear counts. In fact, field tests indicate the MeterMax* System can improve yields by 5-7 bushels per acre.

Calibrate to seed sizes and planting speed
Meters have the potential to singulate seed accurately. Factors like speed, seed size, and wear can reduce meter accuracy by 5-20%. Instead of planting 30,000 seeds per acre, a meter may deliver 33,000 unevenly spaced seeds causing intense competition between plants. Another meter may deliver only 27,000 seeds.

The MeterMax System takes a stand against skips and doubles
Unlike other calibration systems, the patented MeterMax System doesn't just count seeds, it optimizes seed singulation for superior planting rate accuracy and spacing.

Accurately plant any seed size
Plant PDR™ rounds, PDF™ flats, or any other seed size with confidence. All it takes is seed meter performance testing, inspection, reconditioning, and precision calibration with the MeterMax System.
