Abstract

TWO small central metering, air-delivery granular herbicide applicators were evaluated for potential use in seeding. Soybeans, mungbeans, milo and wheat were metered over a typical range of rates with a Gandy 5812 and a Flex-King 160. Some loss of accuracy during operation with seeder platform at an angle was observed for the Flex-King 160, otherwise metering and uniformity was good for both machines. Some problem with seed damage was encountered with the Gandy 5812 when seeding mungbeans and milo.
