Precision Planting®
Today, yield response from starter fertilizer is limited by the current in-furrow and 2x2 attachments. Due to fertilizer salt burn risk, rates for in-furrow pop-up attachments are very limited, capping the yield opportunity. Starter fertilizer placed by using 2x2 attachments is just too far away from the plant roots to be effective during early root development.

FurrowJet®
PlanterDescription
FurrowJet provides starter fertilizer placement for early plant growth.Optimum Starter Placement
Getting the right nutrients to seedlings early in the season is a challenge because fall-applied fertilizers limit the plant’s uptake in the spring. FurrowJet firms the seed in the trench while placing bands of fertilizer on and near the seed, so early roots can access essential nutrients at the perfect time, ensuring that plants are never hungry.Today, yield response from starter fertilizer is limited by the current in-furrow and 2x2 attachments.

Reduce Risk, Increase Yield
FurrowJet is a planter fertilizer attachment which enables you to place not only an in-furrow starter fertilizer, but also a dual band of fertilizer 3/4” on each side of the seed. By being near furrow, FurrowJet’s placement gives the seedling and crown roots immediate and continuous access to the nutrients. FurrowJet rides in the furrow just above the seed, firming while placing starter. Wings on FurrowJet angle downward to cut into the sidewall and place fertilizer alongside the seed in a dual-band. Combined with accurate placement, FurrowJet is flexible, allowing increased rates and common starters to be applied safely, avoiding seed burn risk.More Product Information
