Bam Wx meteorologist Bret Walts checks in with his weather outlook for harvest season.
In the Cover Crop Connection, Vincennes, Ind., no-tiller Ray McCormick explains how he’s maximizing efficiency by seeding cover crops with his combine. Plus, Ray’s equipment dealer, Sloan Implement, showcases a limited production John Deere S7 combine with new precision technology.
Later in the episode, no-tillers from across the country respond to our question of the week, “How are you getting the job done with today’s extra-wide 40 to 60-foot combine headers?”

Our customers believe that Martin-Till®️ products provide an excellent return on their investment. We know this because a large percentage of them are repeat customers since the beginning in 1991. Our planter attachments help make it possible to plant into higher levels of residue and moisture. Higher levels of mulch means less erosion, improved soil tilth and fertility, which can reduce production costs.
Martin-Till’s goal is to increase yields and save you time and money. We hope you find something from our product offerings of row cleaner, UMO’s, closing wheels systems and recently added concaves that will make this year’s planting & harvesting go better for you. After all, you deserve the best!
