INTERSEEDER TECHNOLOGIES 15'

Available in Adams Center, New York, this InterSeeder Technologies 15' InterSeeder for sale is being offered at $20,000. Designed around technology developed through Penn State cover-crop research, the InterSeeder is a specialized 6-row agricultural implement created to drill cover crops between established row crops while providing additional no-till drilling capability when properly configured.
The InterSeeder system is designed around three drilled cover-crop rows between 30-inch corn rows and uses individual coulters, double-disc openers, and packing wheels to establish seed into the soil. Published information for the 6-row version recommends approximately 110–130 tractor horsepower.
This machine may be of particular interest to grain farms, cover-crop operations, conservation programs, and custom operators looking for specialized no-till seeding equipment.
Available in Adams Center, New York, this InterSeeder Technologies 15' InterSeeder for sale is a specialized agricultural seeding implement designed around the Penn State-developed concept of establishing cover crops between rows of standing corn and other row crops. The seller is starting the asking price at $20,000.
The machine shown is the larger 6-row-style InterSeeder configuration, with a wide seed box and multiple individual seeding units positioned across the toolbar. InterSeeder Technologies offered these machines as both specialized cover-crop interseeders and versatile no-till grain drills, allowing an operation to obtain additional use from the machine outside of in-season interseeding.
For grain producers, conservation-minded farms, custom operators, Soil & Water Conservation programs, and operations looking to expand cover-crop acreage, this is a specialized piece of equipment that can provide capabilities not found in a conventional grain drill.
Penn State-Developed Cover Crop Interseeding Design
The InterSeeder concept was developed through research at Penn State University as a method of establishing cover crops earlier in the growing season instead of waiting until after corn harvest.
In its interseeding configuration, the system is designed to plant three cover-crop rows between 30-inch corn rows, with the drilled rows spaced approximately 7.5 inches apart. This allows the cover crop additional growing time before winter while maintaining spacing around the established cash crop.
This type of equipment can be particularly useful in northern growing regions where the window between grain harvest and winter dormancy may be limited.
6-Row InterSeeder Configuration
Published information for the larger InterSeeder identifies a 6-row configuration intended for 30-inch row-crop systems.
Comparable published 6-row machines have been listed at approximately:

6-row capacity
Approximately 16.5 feet overall width

Approximately 4,500 lb in one documented configuration
Recommended tractor power of approximately 110–130 HP

Semi-mount hitch design

Actual weight and configuration can vary depending on how the machine was originally equipped, so buyers should verify transport dimensions and weight before hauling.
Coulter, Double-Disc Opener & Packing-Wheel System
InterSeeder Technologies designed the planting system around individual ground-engaging units.
Manufacturer information describes the system as using coulters, double-disc openers, and packing wheels. The coulters help work through residue and prepare the seed path, while the double-disc openers form the seed trench. Packing wheels provide seed-to-soil contact and assist with planting-depth control.
The photographs of this particular machine show numerous spring-loaded planting assemblies across the toolbar along with the large central seed box.
That configuration makes the machine particularly relevant for conservation tillage, cover-crop establishment, and operations where maintaining residue on the soil surface is an important part of the cropping system.
More Than a Specialized Corn InterSeeder
One of the more valuable aspects of the InterSeeder design is its ability to serve beyond in-season cover-crop work.
InterSeeder Technologies specifically describes the machine as capable of functioning as a no-till grain drill, including applications such as:

Cover crops
Cereal rye
Wheat
Soybeans
Other crops suited to drilled planting

Depending on the particular configuration, additional planting units can be used to establish full-width drilling capability.
That versatility can help justify ownership for farms that want an interseeding machine but also need a drill during other parts of the growing season.
Optional Systems Were Available
InterSeeder Technologies manufactured these machines in several different configurations.
Factory offerings included machines with:

InterSeeder planting equipment only
Liquid fertilizer sidedress capability
Herbicide application equipment
Combined fertilizer and herbicide systems
Full-drill capability

Because only two photographs are available for this particular machine, this listing does not represent those optional fertilizer or herbicide systems as included equipment. Buyers should base their evaluation on the components currently installed on the machine and visible during inspection.
Cover-Crop & Conservation Applications
This type of machine may be especially relevant for:

Corn and grain farms
Cover-crop programs
Soil-health initiatives
Conservation districts
Custom planting operations
No-till farms
Reduced-tillage operations
Farms incorporating winter forage
Farms attempting to establish cover crops earlier in the season

Penn State and Cornell research has documented the use of the InterSeeder concept for establishing cover crops into standing cash crops and extending the amount of time those cover crops have to grow before winter.
Available in Adams Center, New York
This InterSeeder is currently located in Adams Center, NY, an agricultural area in northern New York where early cover-crop establishment can be particularly useful because of the shorter post-harvest growing season.
The seller is starting the machine at $20,000.
Because used InterSeeder Technologies machines do not appear on the open market as frequently as conventional grain drills, this unit may deserve consideration from buyers specifically searching for a purpose-built cover-crop interseeder or a specialty drill capable of fitting into a conservation-focused cropping program.
