What is a Cultipacker?

what is a cultipackerA cultipacker is a tractor attachment that is used for making a smooth firm seedbed by pressing down small stones into the soil, crush dirt clods and removes air pockets. By rolling over seed beds the soil is pressed around the seeds causing shallow seed placement and a good seed to soil contact.

Why Should I Use A Cultipacker?

Well Cultipacking can be very important when you are planting small-seeded crops like alfalfa, chicory, and clover because it ensures consistent seed-to-soil contact across the entire seedbed while minimizing the number of seeds that are planted too deeply. Because small seeds are not able to germinate and reach the surface if buried more than a quarter inch, cultipacking can help the seeds reach their full potential. For the most part small seeds like this normally only need to be firmly pressed into the soil.
