When you’re planting small seeds like canola or sesame, even spacing isn’t just nice to have—it’s everything. The trouble is, most seed disks out there just aren’t made for the job. They’re built for more general crops, and that can lead to skips, doubles, and uneven emergence that cost you yield before the season even gets going.
That’s where the RRV Seed Disk comes in.
Why Singulation Makes a Big Difference
Singulation is about putting one seed, exactly where it needs to go, every time. When spacing is off, you end up with:
- Doubles and Skips – Too close together? Plants fight for nutrients and light. Too far apart? You lose stand count. Either way, you’re leaving yield behind.
Uneven Emergence – If seeds don’t drop at a consistent depth and spacing, some pop up early, some lag behind. That uneven stand shows up in the combine. - Lower Yields – It all adds up. Poor placement = poor performance.
Why Standard Disks Don’t Cut It for Small Seeds
Here’s the thing—most disks aren’t designed with small seeds in mind. They might work okay for bigger crops, but they struggle with tiny, lightweight seeds like canola and sesame. You’ll end up with poor pickup, irregular drop, and an inconsistent stand across the field.
And that’s not something you can fix later in the season.
The Fix: RRV Seed Disk
The RRV Seed Disk was built specifically to handle small seeds—and it shows.
- Purpose-Built Design – Unlike generic disks, this one is made just for small seeds.. That means accurate seed pickup and smooth drop, every time.
- Reduces Doubles & Skips – With precise seed release, you get consistent spacing across the row—no bunching, no gaps.
- More Yield Potential – Better spacing and even emergence mean your crop gets off to a strong start—right out of the gate.
Bottom Line
If you’re running small seeds through a standard seed disk, you’re already at a disadvantage. You’re planting a year’s worth of potential—why leave it to chance? The RRV Seed Disk gives you the singulation you need to make every seed count.
