Precision Planting Introduces an Innovative and Customizable Planting System
Have you head of Precision Planting’s CornerStone planting system?
Farms.com caught up with Bryce Baker, Precision Planting’s marketing director, to learn more about this fully customized planting system loaded with innovative hardware.
CornerStone integrates high-performance components with an ergonomic design, providing a complete, customizable solution for farmers.
Unlike previous retrofit components, the CornerStone system includes the entire steel structure of the row unit along with Precision Planting’s cutting-edge technology.
This combination allows for seamless upgrades to existing planters or the construction of new planters with the help of Precision Planting dealers, says Baker.
The system supports all existing Precision Planting components, such as vDrive, SpeedTube high-speed delivery, FurrowForce, Reveal, and DeltaForce.
It features trailing gauge wheels for smoother operation and optimized row unit performance.
The disc opener angle and contact point are agronomically enhanced to clear soil efficiently and reduce the “W” bottom effect.
A standout feature is the full-size rear-tipping hopper, available in three-bushel, 1.6-bushel, or mini sizes.
This hopper pivots from the rear, making it easier to access components like the seed tube or meter without handling heavy loads. This ergonomic design simplifies maintenance tasks, saving you time and effort.
The CornerStone Planting System is set for a limited commercial release in 2025, providing you with advanced planting solutions in customizable configurations.
