Closing wheels are the last part of the planter that can affect the crop at planting. The wrong setup can negate all the proper placement and depth you have achieved. Closing wheels securely close the furrow and eliminate air pockets.

The closing system’s job is to securely close the furrow and eliminate air pockets to improve the chance of even emergence. In numerous studies, replacement closing wheel treatments held an advantage over the two solid rubber wheel control.
