about us
directions

I've been using Calmer's Trash Reduction system for two years. It definitely reduces trash. No reason
for the gathering chain to go zing'n around at high speeds.

After six-years of research with neighboring farmers we are convinced 15-inch rows will out yield
30-inch by 8-10 bushes per acre and I see no reason to continue researching.
Allen Berry, farmer/crop consultant - Nauvoo, IL (switched to 15-inch rows in 1996)

All indications are that I should have switched to 20-inch rows sooner.
Francis Childes - Manchester, IA
World Record Corn Yield 441 bu/ac - 20-inch rows

Narrow rows will not penalize you in dry years.
John Bradley, researcher - Milan, TX (now with Monsanto)

The poorer the soil, the bigger the yield kick to 15 or 20-inch corn row!
George Roberts - Trovoli, IL (switched to 20-inch rows in 1989)

When we finished harvesting our 15-inch rows and pulled into the field of 30-inch rows, it looked like
there was one row missing and so much wasted space.
Dave Sweeden, farmer - Streator, IL
