- SEED DISTRIBUTION
Great Plains Air-Pro Meters take singulation and spacing accuracy a step
beyond what is offered in the industry today. Air-Pro Meters load seed in
the seed disc with pressurized air. As the meter rotates, the seed enters
the brush area where the air is cut off. Without the air flow, the seed is
“dead-dropped” directly into the Clear-Shot® Seed Tube.

Meter Cutaway
SEED DISTRIBUTION METER

The patented seed distribution manifold has no moving
parts to wear out. Seed is distributed to the air hose by
a venturi system that gently pulls seed into the air flow.
Large, sealed gates at the bottom of each distributor make
cleanout easy.
