Good Afternoon,

Winter is moving along quickly, and we have been busy here at Shea AG.  Seed has been coming in and filling our warehouse, with that we will be delivering soon. We have also been working on a variety of shop project.  Some of the projects we have been working on have been liquid kits on planters, as well as building a new planter from scratch.

Meter Testing!

Testing your seed meters is an important task, and as we get closer to planting, we want to make sure they are in good working order. Now is the time to find any issues, not the first day of planting.

Shop projects have been steady for the month of January and February.  Often, we get asked what type of planter projects do we do here at Shea AG.  Over the years, the planter business has evolved.  From Alpine liquid kits to adding Precision Planting and Yetter to our product line up.  Planter technology has come along way in the last 15 years and continues to grow.

Here is a video to show you just some of the planter projects we do at Shea AG!
