No Till Seed Drill

A No-Till Seed Drill is a planter that allows for placement of seeds in the ground without having to drastically disturb the topsoil beforehand. Using a no-till seed drill can result in reduced compaction, reduced soil erosion, increased organic matter, improved soil structure and better infiltration; just a few of the positive attributes associated with no-till. The District's No-Till Seed Drill is most often used to rejuvenate tired pastures without having to disc or plough and to plant competition for weeds after a control method has been applied. The drill has been used in many cases to plant cover crops, a diverse mix of seed that helps improve the water holding capacity, fertility and structure of the soil. Over 2000 acres in Montezuma County have been seeded with the No-Till Drill in the last 5 years.
