2024 Bourgault MRB®III Base

2024 Bourgault MRB®III

Since its introduction in 1996, thousands of Bourgault seeding systems equipped with MRB® Fertilizer Applicators have helped Producers realize the best possible start for their crops, both in good and in challenging years.

With the ability to deliver optimal seed-to-fertilizer placement in the widest range of soil conditions, Bourgault Mid Row Bander® Fertilizer Applicators have revolutionized the practice of one-pass seeding in small grain operations.

Features may include:

The current Mid Row Bander® Fertilizer Application series is the third generation of a highly successful fertilizer banding implement. Even after 25 years and millions of acres, the design of the Bourgault MRB® is continued to be reviewed and refined.

This dedication to product refinement is one of the reasons why over 80% of Bourgault seeding systems are purchased with the Mid Row Bander® Fertilizer Application option.

Setting & Adjustments

Setting the correct operational depth, in relation to the soil surface and the seeding depth is vital. Attention and appropriate action will not only produce a good crop response to the banded fertilizer, but will also minimize losses of your valuable investment.

The key to effective and trouble-free operation is correct depth setting, as well as periodic greasing and scraper adjustment to account for disk wear. Proper setting will greatly reduce troublesome issues such as plugging or bearing failure.

MRB® Coulter Cleaning Options

Choose between the Outside Closer Tine or Retainer Wheel for optimal soil retention in a wide range of soil conditions.

• The retaining wheel is an ideal match for the ParaLink Coulter Drill™ when minimal soil disturbance is a primary goal.

• When applying anhydrous ammonia, retainer wheels will direct more soil over the furrow to minimize gassing off.

Momentary Isolation Switch

The Momentary Isolation Switch provides a fast and convenient method of reducing draft or releasing trapped residue without disrupting the seeding pass.

• In wet conditions, if the drill begins to bog down, the Operator can lift the Mid Row Bander® Fertilizer Applicators and broadcast the fertilizer while leaving the seed openers in the ground to temporarily reduce the amount of draft. Once through the wet spot, the MRB® Fertilizer Applicators can be returned to their engaged position.

Only Bourgault seeding systems are designed to accommodate MRBs® so you can maximize the benefits and reduce the risk of one-pass fertilizer placement, while establishing a high quality seedbed.
