Each year, more and more farmers turn to the Martin - till system to help widen their planting window. Being able to return to the field a day or two sooner after each rain allows more acres to be planted on time. Having the option of reducing or eliminating tillage lets them focus on planting, which creates opportunities for expansion without the need for additional costly equipment.

3 Increased nitrate levels within streams and rivers will soon bring tighter regulations with regards to quantity and timing of nitrogen applications. This brings both challenges and opportunities, because research clearly illustrates that banding fertilizer close to the seed row can increase early plant health (especially in no- till conditions) plus boost the overall recovery % of fertilizer applications. Our UMO-100 fertilizer opener mounts to the face plate of the planter unit and cleanly positions fertilizer consistently alongside the row.

4 The UMO-100 can also be installed within our new 1360 floating row cleaners to achieve the benefits of residue clearing and fertilizer placement at the same time. Martin Industries remains committed to the task of discovering and developing more ways to help our customers achieve better stands, yields and profits.

Use Martin Row Cleaners to remove excess residue and clods from the row without furrowing. Pages 6 - 13 Step 2. Place fertilizer in soil, not on trash or planter. Use our Martin Unit-Mounted Fertilizer Openers to cleanly position liquid or dry fertilizer precisely in a band beside the row. Pages 14 - 15 Step 3. Let the seed discs lift part of the sidewall.

Select the best Martin closing system for your soils and moisture level. 20 point dimples, single 15 and a pair of 13 spiked closing wheels are all available to install on most planters to close and/or fracture the sidewalls. Pages 18 - 25 Step 5. Level the row and seal air pockets.

7 Finally, use our Twisted Drag Chain to drag a hand-full of soil. This technique helps level and lightly firm the row to promote more consistent emergence.

The Image to the left illustrates a WA 1360 floating row cleaner helping to no- till corn into wheat stubble in Kentucky.

8 The image to the left illustrates a set of WA 1360 floating row cleaners mounted on a John Deere 1770 in Kansas, no-tilling corn into soybean residue. Floating row cleaners excel in fields with topographic variations, dif-ferent soil types or areas with wide ranging residue levels. The image to the left illustrates a WA 1360 floating row cleaner mounted on a White 8000 series planter no-tilling corn into grain sorghum residue. A set of internal deflectors (scrapers) are strongly encouraged for damp residue conditions.

9 WA 1360 Floating Row Cleaners - Options STW-04 Side Treader Wheels. Aluminum Side Treader wheels are purchased on over 95% of WA 1360 floating row cleaners and are designed to prevent the row cleaner wheels trenching within soft soils. They also provide traction to help keep the row cleaners turning in heavy residue. CA Cam Adjust. Cam adjusters are available for all WA 1360 row cleaners and they speed up the process of changing the working depth of the row cleaner frames. They are especially beneficial for growers who frequently switch from no- till to conventional soils.

10 WW-04 Wheel Weights (sold as a pair) Wheel weights are strongly recommended when no-tilling into heavy residue (such as heavy corn or wheat residue). Each pair adds 10lb of weight per row. Two pairs can be added per row for extremely heavy residue such as heavy Bt cornstalks. Clearing Residue WA 1360 floating row cleaners are designed to follow the contours of the soil surface, consistently moving residue clear of the path of the gauge wheels. This allows the gauge wheels to run in the cleared zone to promote uniform depth control and facilitate quicker soil warming and rapid emergence.
