Rental Program

No-Till Drill
The District promotes conservation tillage techniques by offering, for rent two no-till drills. The ten foot Great Plains Drill requires at least 75 horsepower to operate on the rolling hills of the county.

Also available is a seven foot Great Plains 705-NG no-till drill. This drill has a Native Grass Seed Attachment. This new feature will expand the use of the drill with the growing interest in establishing native warm-season grasses for grazing, buffers, and wildlife plantings, plus aid in the establishment of the more fluffy grasses like smooth bromegrass. The seven foot drill requires at least 55 horsepower to operate.

Either drill rents for $8.00 per acre ($50.00 minimum charge) to local landowners. A deposit of half the intended acreage plus a $25.00 refundable clean-up deposit is required before picking up the drill. Proof of insurance must be brought in. Call the office to schedule usage!
