Ultimate Seeder Buying Guide

Seeder guide for row spacing, seed type, acreage, manual operation and crop establishment.

Practical recommendation

Seeder selection begins with crop, seed size and row spacing. Hand seeders are valuable when they match the crop and reduce manual bending.

For seeders, match seed size, row spacing and soil tilth. Uneven field preparation causes uneven placement even with a good seeder.
