Typically your air seeder only allows you to choose one downforce setting, meaning that you can’t match it to every environment in your field. SeederForce from Precision Planting, offered by Vanderwal Ag, is an automated downforce control system that measures and adjusts downforce every time you encounter variability in the field to ensure that you have a consistent crop stand that provides great yields.
Select how much gauge wheel weight you want to have on the wheels of the air seeder or drill, and the SeederForce system will make automatic adjustments to maintain the desired weight. It will measure and adjust downforce every time you encounter variability in the field.
Section control varies the downforce applied to each rock shaft of the air seeder or drill using a hydraulic manifold per section. Whereas row control varies the downforce applied to each row of the drill. This requires a load cell as well as a hydraulic cylinder in place of the spring on each row.
Multiple downforce sensors on the gauge wheels drive real-time measurements to the 20|20 in the cab. Then you set a desired amount of weight on each gauge wheel, and the 20|20 system automatically makes adjustments on the go while seeding.
The goal is to get each seed into moisture so it will grow, but not to have too much compaction where the seed can’t break through the ground. By allowing SeederForce to automatically adjust the pressure on each row according to what soil environment the sensor on the gauge wheel detects, you will prevent seeds on top of the ground, and eliminate sidewall compaction, even in wheel tracks.
