Monosem Vacuum/Pneumatic
Polyplanter Can precision sow most uncoated seeds with very good accuracy. 'Polyplanter" uses the MONOSEM vacuum seed unit. Its precision includes the singulation of seeds from the size of pepper seeds on up to large seeds such as lima beans. For example, this unit does an excel- lent job of singulating the supersweet sweet corn seeds, a seed that does not have a standard shape.
