The Overseeder with the Can Do Attitude
The Brillion Till ‘N Seed is a widely diverse seeder that offers rugged durability for customers looking to seed into existing turf, renovate pastures, restore athletic fields, reseed golf course fairways, inter-seed residential lawns and plant food plots.
The Evolution
The Till ‘N Seed concept started years ago from customers asking for a ground driven tool to renovate their pastures. Customers were looking for a seeder that would not disturb existing vegetation but would still be able to penetrate the hard surface of the pasture and place the seed at the correct depth for the best chance at germination. Through an extensive design and testing process, the Till ‘N Seed was born. Not only could this seeder renovate pastures as was originally requested, but it was also the perfect tool for repairing damaged alfalfa fields, restoring athletic fields and lawns, de-thatching lawns, and planting and shredding food plots.
One and Done
The Brillion Till ‘N Seed is one user-friendly machine that can tackle a number of chores from restoring pastures and repairing fields on the farm, to inter-seeding residential lawns and golf course fairways, to repairing athletic fields to planting food plots for hunting enthusiasts. Prepare, seed and finish…One and Done!
The Workings
The foundation of the Till ‘N Seed is the one-piece all-welded steel frame, which supports the ground engaging seeding mechanism (rotors) and the seed boxes. To adapt to varying conditions, down pressure on the tillage rotor is adjustable with an air shock and seed depth is set with adjustable gauge wheels. Seeding rates can be fine-tuned for each seed box. The seed is broadcast into the soil as it is opened by the rotors. A rear firming roller finishes the seeding operation by firming the seedbed.
Built-In Extras
Built-in parking stands allow three-point hitch models to be safely detached from the tractor without the fear of tipping. A built-in walk-board with steps and handrails on the rear of the unit allows for easy filling of the seed boxes. Built-in tie down lugs are included for securing the Till ‘N Seed to trailers for transport. A seed calibration tray makes custom seed rate calibration easy is conveniently stored on the machine when not in use. Seed box disconnect pins disengage seeding mechanisms when the unit is used in tillage-only mode.
The Details
The Till ‘N Seed is offered in a 6′ three-point hitch model and in 8′ three-point hitch or pull-type models. The 6’ unit comes standard with two seed boxes; the front seed box features large micro-meters with an agitator and can plant a variety of seeds at varying rates in three ranges. The rear seed box features small micro-meters for the precise seeding of very fine, small seeds.
The 8′ models are equipped with a small micro-metered seed box in front, a large micro-metered seed box in the middle, and an optional agitator seed box can be added on the rear.
