Case IH updates Precision Air 5 Series air carts and Flex Hoe 900 air drills

RACINE, Wis. — Case IH recently introduced new productivity-boosting features to its Precision Air 5 Series air carts and Flex Hoe 900 air drills.

Precision Air 5 Series carts help producers make the most of short seeding windows, while Flex Hoe air drills help them efficiently seed small grain in any ground conditions. New configurations, options and other features enhance productivity and versatility.

Producers can also boost their flexibility with liquid-fertilizer configurations for Precision Air 5 Series air carts. The liquid-ready tank includes a product lid and overflow line, 3-foot bottom suction port, tank rinse nozzle and site gauge.

The roller lineup has also been expanded to allow growers to plant almost any seed at any rate. The new sunflower roller applies oil-type sunflower seed at the consistency growers need.

In addition, the fill system on the auxiliary tank has been redesigned with a gravity system, creating a faster, more intuitive and more uniform filling.

“These updates help producers get the most of every plant’s potential through highly accurate fertilizer and seed placement,” said Trent Nowosad, Case IH seeding marketing manager. “Additional configurations and options add more versatility for a variety of crops and fertilizers.”

With a number of agronomically designed features, the Flex Hoe 900 air drill is built to cover more acres, even in challenging conditions. New configurations and options increase productivity and versatility.

A larger 80-feet working width meets market demand to cover a wider area of the field for fewer passes. Redesigned air packs are easy to use, providing an optimized path for seed and fertilizer.

And a high-floatation tire package with 340/60R15 radial implement tires improves travel in wetter soils and conditions with less compaction.

“Our goal is to help growers make the most of every season, soil and seed,” Nowosad said. “Updates to our Precision Air Series air carts and Flex Hoe air drills help make that happen with even more versatility and efficiency — which means producers can do more work in less time and seed with the highest level of confidence.”
