(208) 670-1041 www.ag-vantage.com CULTI-DIKER The Culti-Diker forms small, precise waterretaining pockets, which are large enough to catch moderate amounts of water but small enough not to interfere with future field operations. It is a medium-duty water conservation tool designed to be mounted directly onto row crop cultivators, planters, grain drills and various tool bars. The Culti-Diker saves growers time and money by eliminating multiple field passes, thus making the capital investment more cost effective. It is a proven water conservation tool when used in sugarbeets, corn, beans, potatoes and grains. The Culti-Diker line is available in different models—ST, NX and MAX—to meet any operation's individual needs. l PARMA COMPANY (208) 722-5116 www.parmacompany.com PARMA HIGH-SPEED DISC The High-Speed Disc is specifically designed to enable various results of primary tillage disking. Front 600/50- 22.5 flotation tires in combination with the rear roller provide precise depth control for high-speed/shallow or slower-speed/deep disking. Front and rear rows of individual, 24- inch notched disc blades spaced at 10 inches are independently mounted on maintenance- free disc hub bearings and torsion spring-cushioned shanks. The distinct working action of each disc helps maintain a thorough and even disking result across the working width at the selected speeds. The separately controlled rear transport axle with 15-inch tires and the front tongue create a unique dual-action float or raise mechanism for complete lifting control at all times. Parma's High-Speed Disc is presently available in rigid widths of 14 to 21 feet and a wide variety of rear roller configurations including Crowfoot, packer rings, welded basket or pipe roller. Horsepower requirements for optimum highspeed performance are 15 to 20 horsepower per foot. n l DESERT SUNSET AG (208) 339-1855 www.littlediker.com LITTLE DIKER The Little Diker is a versatile conservation tool that creates small pockets or dams, which prevent wind and water erosion in row crops or flat planting. It can be mounted to most row crop planters, such as the JD Max or Monosem vacuum planters, as well as grain drills and cultivators. The Little Diker has been shown to improve stand, emergence and yield in sugarbeets, corn, beans and wheat/ small grains crops. A simple mechanical design mounts between planter units on row spacings as narrow as 20 inches. Built in Boise, Idaho, by American Craftsman, the Little Diker will provide a substantial return on every grower's investment.
