Land Pride welcomes you to the growing family of new product owners. This Seed Bed Roller has been designed with care and built by skilled workers using quality materials. Proper assembly, maintenance and safe operating practices will help you get years of satisfactory use from the machine.

Application

The Land Pride SBR48, SBR60 and SBR72 Three-point hitch or Pull-Type Seed Bed Rollers have uses and applications in landscaping, sports field maintenance, pasture maintenance, professional turf care, general seeding and overseeding applications around home sites, construction sites,horse paddocks, nurseries, sod farms, and small farm or ranch operations. These Seed Bed Rollers will break up smaller clumps and dirt clods, whilepressing applied seedintofirm contact with thesoil profile for greatly improved germination rates. The notched profile of the rollers also develops a pattern of uniformlyspaced mini-furrows that tendtoholdseed and fertilizer in place. These small furrows also retain essential moisture, and resist erosion from the wind and the runoff from applied irrigation or rain.
The Seed Bed Roller also can also serve as the roller packer attachment of Land Pride’s complimented Seeder/Overseedersystem.Thissystemiscomprised of a Land Pride Disc Harrow with a rear mounted Spin Spreader and special hitch kit, a trailing 6’ x 4’ DRG06 Drag Harrow, and trailing Pull-type SBR72 Seed Bed Roller.
