Food Plot Seeder
The Brillion Food Plot Seeder is Brillion’s answer to the outdoor industry’s request for a wildlife food plot seeding machine that was built to meet the challenges of rugged terrain, high residue, reliable seed metering and ease of operation. Read More…
Real Tool – Not a Toy
The reliability of the time proven Brillion Sure Stand Seeders is the foundation upon which the Food Plot Seeder is built. Starting with the all welded, one piece steel frame, the Food Plot Seeder will not flex or slip out of adjustment. The unique floating three-point hitch is attached to the front of the frame. The 18” disc blade gangs are adjustable for angle of operation and are mounted rigid to the underside of the frame. The miniature S-Tine cultivator segment is adjustable for depth of operation through a series of holes on the main frame. The complete cultivator segment may be removed if desired. The seed boxes are mounted to the top of the frame and are driven from the pulverizer/packer roller also attached to the frame. Optional coil tine levelers and the utility box also have mounting positions on the main frame.
Versatility Built-In
Seeding wild life plots is usually not an exact science that can be easily replicated. Conditions change from planting to planting and the tools used to plant them need to versatile enough to accommodate. The Brillion Food Plot Seeder can prep and plant in one pass in some conditions. However, in most situations, some preparation needs to be done to ensure a proper planting process. The Brillion Food Plot Seeder can be adjusted to be used as a disc harrow by shortening the top link on the hitch to put the seeder full forward so just the disc harrow contacts the soil. This will allow for rugged tillage for a first or second pass. By lengthening the top link on the hitch, the cultivator segment and roller can be used as a complete preparation tillage tool. If the final seedbed is loose and fluffy, raise the three-point arms slightly, lengthen the top link some more to put the weight of the entire seeder on the pulverizer roller and roll the field to firm up the seedbed before planting. Once the seedbed is firm, level the seeder on the hitch, engage the seed boxes, and proceed with the seeding operation. In some cases, the seeded plot may need to be rolled again after seeding to ensure the best seed to soil contact. Many of these scenarios may or may not be present in every situation. Whatever conditions you run into in your food plots, be assured the Brillion Food Plot Seeder can handle it!
