[Under Construction]


AgAmerica has 8 KMC rip-strip units like this in 4-, 6-, & 8-row configurations.

Our KMC Rip-Strip units are set up on 38" row spacing, but may be adjusted to 36" or 40" if arranged with the equipment technician early in the season.  Each row is set up with a shank and series of coulters to shatter the hardpan in the seed row, with minimal disturbance to moisture conserving residue cover.   (An optional center marker is available for these rigs, if desired.)  Two 6-row units are available with lift assists and John Deere air planters for single pass seedbed preparation and planting (38" configuration).   For more details about the Strip-Till units see the KMC website.
