Rice Requires a Special Hardened Meter:
Great Plains offers planter models YP3025AR-3610 and
YP4025AR-4810 for planting rice. In these planters, the
Air-Pro
®
meter housing has a special coating that resists wear
from rice. Rice planting can wear out a standard Air-Pro
®
meter housing within one season; an abuse not covered by
warranty. A rice meter, however, may be used with any crop.
