Seed Rate Calibration Scale Pounds per Acre Drills

"Seeder Meter"
Pounds per Acre Application Rate Scale
Hand-held scale gives exact "pounds per acre" seed application rate for air seeders and all convential grain drills. Chart on canister gives row spacing and travel distance. Seed sample collection bag included.
This is a new product, Made in U.S.A.
The chart on your drill is just a starting point. Due to seed texture and varied seed size, drill charts are unreliable. The price of the seeder meter can be saved in one round.
Save expensive seed. Extremely accurate, for all drills and air seeders.
Simple to use:
Find your row spacing on chart.
Measure travel distance and attach collection bag to air seeder tube or catch seed in a disposable cup from drill outlet. For grass seed, you may increase travel distance 10 times and divide pounds by 10.
Drive travel distance with seeder engaged.
Empty sample into scale and (IMPORTANT) level the seed in the canister.
Support scale by ring and slide weight box on scale beam until level bubble is centered.
6. Read pounds per acre above center of weight.
Scale determines 0 to 250 pounds per acre of exact seed application.
