Experience the Väderstad PD 1350 Precision Delivery Air Cart
Join Jeff Prosko from Rose Valley, Saskatchewan, as he shares his experience with the PD 1350 Precision Delivery Air Cart. Jeff and his family run a diverse farming operation, and they had the opportunity to put the PD 1350 to the test on their canola fields. The Seed Hawk air drill was equipped with the brand-new Extend Series by BTT knives to obtain the ideal separation of fertilizer and seed. The barrier created by the dual-knife system prevents fertilizer burn while allowing the seed early access to nutrients.
In this video, Jeff highlights the key features of the PD 1350, such as its electric drive meter system, iPad wireless connectivity, and the flexibility it offers with its larger capacity bins. He emphasizes how the PD 1350 has made their seeding process more efficient and reliable, allowing them to cover more acres with fewer refills and less hassle.
Watch the full video to see the PD 1350 in action and hear firsthand how it’s pushing the boundaries of small grain systems with its innovative design and user-friendly features.
The PD 1350 is Väderstad’s largest air seeder, boasting a total capacity of 1,350 bushels with four bins and dual wheels. It’s packed with Väderstad’s premier technologies, including the iCon wireless control, the Fenix III metering system, section control, and variable rate capabilities. This advanced system is designed to be incredibly simple to set up and operate, making it the perfect fit for any operation looking to spend more time seeding and less time refilling.
Since 2019, Väderstad's Precision Delivery Air Carts have helped farmers in Canada and Australia to planted around 13.7 million acres of Barley, Canola, Wheat, Peas, Oats, and Rye, along with Dry Fertilizer, Inoculant, and NH3. This showcases our commitment to working alongside farmers and enhancing their productivity.

Extend Series by BTT
The Extend Series by BTT is the result of two Saskatchewan manufacturers working together, collaborating with the end goal of pushing the boundaries of wear and placement accuracy. These knives offers excellent seed and fertilizer placement with exceptional wear
BTT Extend Series - Inline Option As part of the Extend Series, BTT Inline knives are equipped with updated carbide tips and hardened surfaces that extend the wear capabilities of each knife. Extend Series inline knives also feature a new steel drop tube design, further improving lifespan and simplifying change over processes.
BTT Extend Series - Fertilizer Option The BTT Extend Series features updated carbide tips and hardened surfaces that significantly reduce wear frequency and extend the lifespan of each individual knife. BTT Extend Series fertilizer knives are compatible with all current 3-piece Seed Hawk opener configurations.

Two knives, two working zones
The perfect separation of fertilizer and seed is obtained through the dual-knife system where the second knife covers the fertilizer with soil before dropping the seed. This creates a barrier between the seed and fertilizer, preventing fertilizer burn while allowing the seed early access to nutrients.
Inline Side Band The all-new Inline Side Band knives achieve side band placement with an inline knife design. The seed knife cuts a separate shallow trench where an angled seed tube is used to place the seed 2” away from and 0.75” above the fertilizer. The new inline design allows for better soil flow and performance in residues resulting in a smoother field finish. The new inline system also allows the grower to easily switch from Side Band to Twin Row placement if desired.
Twin Wing Option If narrower spacing is desired, growers have the option to equip their 12 inch toolbars with Twin Wing openers to create 9 inch of spacing between seeded rows. The design ensures that two distinct rows emerge, while providing proper separation of seed and fertilizer. The wider shank distribution improves residue clearance, and tighter row spacing increases seed bed use, making the emerging crop a better competitor for weeds.
Single Side Band The Single Side Band knife is the leader in precision seed and fertilizer placement. The offset knives cut shallow, separate trenches for seed and fertilizer, placing seed on undisturbed soil and fertilizer in the best position for superior uptake, while also protecting seedlings. The result is quicker germination and more even emergence, in all soil conditions.

* For increased packing coverage the spindle may be changed when installing Inline Side Band Knives ** Propensity for plugging largely depends on soil types and moisture. With heavier soils and high moisture, the propensity factor will be increased. *** Propensity for plugging largely depends on soil types and moisture.
