Any one part in a meter, the backing plate, the finger set, the singulator, the belt, can defeat the whole mechanism. One thing leads to another, and one mistake in singulation leads to another skip or double, which leads to shrinking yields.
Any one of the components here will improve your current meters. Together, they lead to even more productivity. You still have time to calibrate your meter before planting.
