Metering Systems Help Ensure Accurate Seed Placement

Seed meters are at the very heart of any planter. At Kinze, we offer three types of metering systems to meet a variety of planting challenges — including meters for odd-shaped or odd-sized seeds (even sunflowers) and to take into account things like seed treatments, which may cause seeds to stick together. No matter what you plant or how you plant it, there is a Kinze seed meter that’s right for you.
