400 cyclo fertilizer chart

Anonymous-0 · May 16, 2013

I was wondering if anyone had a fertilizer chart for a 400 cyclo 4 row 38'' corn planter?

Sure, what do you want to know?

What tooth sprockets do I need for around 150 pounds of fertilizer an acre? Thank You.

If you have low rate augers the max you can apply is 130lbs with a #17 driver and a #15 driven. If you have high rate augers then you need a #8 driver and a #15 driven for 150lbs.

I should add there is a extra high rate auger also in which the minimum you can apply is 230lbs. If your not sure what auger you have then follow this procedure to find out.

Remove one delivery tube and tie a bag to the spout under the hopper. Engage the fertilizer drive and drive the planter forward for a distance of roughly 136 feet. Weigh the amount of fertilizer caught in the bag and multiply by 100. The result will be the total pounds per acre.
