2024 Great Plains 20' & 30' No-Till Air Drills NTA-2007

The Great Plains NTA-2007 and NTA-3007 are highly productive air drills designed for the mid-sized farmer. They each have high-capacity bulk tanks on board and are packed with features, like simplified rear calibration and cleanout, to make no-till seeding more accurate and productive.

The Great Plains NTA-2007 and NTA-3007 are highly productive air drills designed for the mid-sized farmer. They each have high-capacity bulk tanks on board and are packed with features, like simplified rear calibration and cleanout, to make no-till seeding more accurate and productive. In spite of their wider working widths, these 20' and 30' air drills fold to under 10' wide for easier transport from field to field.

Features may include:

Retain the high productivity of an air drill in a unit that folds to under 10-ft. wide for easy transport along roadways and between fields.

This system splits no-till seeding into two operations: penetration and seed placement. Preloaded at 450 lbs., frame-mounted coulters get the job done by working at the desired depth to ensure optimum seed placement for a uniform stand. Increase coulter depth to penetrate hard, dry soils, or reduce coulter depth in soft conditions. This allows the 07 Series double-disc openers to properly place the seed. Seeding depth is set by the 18-position T-handle at the rear of the opener. Coulter choices include ¾" wavy, 5/8" Turbo, or a 5/16" fluted blade, or opt for no coulters, if desired.

The integrated cart-to-implement design offers exceptional maneuverability when backing into a storage shed or the corners of a field. Active hydraulic weight transfer maintains even, consistent penetration across the entire width of the implement.

Choices include, from left, single 3"x13" double rib press wheels; 3"x13" center rib press wheels; single 2"x13" smooth press wheels; 1"x12" double-V press wheels; or wedge-style press wheels that create a pinching action to close the trench.

Choose either 7½" or 6" row spacing for crops like alfalfa and wheat.

A single fan supplies air to a divided manifold where the star-wheel meters drop the seed into the airflow of each tower. The towers use a transition cone to uniformly divide the seed to individual rows. Full-length seed tubes complete the process, delivering seed to the bottom of the trench.
