MULTIPLE AGRICULTURAL PRODUCT APPLICATION METHOD AND SYSTEMS

摘要

A row unit, method and agricultural planter (10) for planting one of a plurality of seed types, hybrids and/or varieties with a plurality of row units (40, 70, 500). The row units include substantially static metering systems, which can include multiple seed meters (50, 52, 79, 83, 520, 522) at a particular row unit. The metering systems including more than one seed meters are configured such that the seed meters will plant different seed types or varieties. The operation of one or more of the seed meters at a time will provide for the planting of a particular seed variety. The invention provides for on-the-go changing of a seed being planted by changing the operation of one or more of the seed meters at each of the row units and provides for almost infinite variation among the row units for planting particular seed varieties or not planting at all.
