In this video interview with Spudnik’s Brent Rigby, Spud Smart editor Ashley Robinson talks with him about the 8312 potato planter, which was named one of Spud Smart’s 10 most innovative products.
Spudnik’s 8312 12-row potato planter can fold up to the width of a six-row, enabling it to be moved from field to field easier.
The six-row base has two three-row wings on either side that can swing up when required. This allows it to more easily traverse roads and bridges and conform to size restrictions while travelling from field to field.
The 8312 makes it easier job to navigate around power poles and irrigation equipment. It also cuts down on the amount of equipment — or people — that’s required to plant potatoes.
