Great Planes 606 NT Drill, $15 per acre rental fee.

A no-till drill is an agricultural implement that plants seeds directly into undisturbed soil and crop residue, cutting a narrow slit with sharp discs, dropping the seed, and closing it in one pass, which minimizes soil disturbance to reduce erosion, conserve moisture, and build healthier soil structure. It's used for cover crops, small grains, and pasture renovation, offering benefits like improved organic matter, better water infiltration, and increased soil carbon.
