ABSTRACT:
Commercially available seed planters have V-wings mounted immediately in front of the seed openers to sweep clods away and skim off the top player of the bed. However, V-wings are not effective in trashy and sticky soils. The attachment of the present invention is mounted on the V-wing and has downward-rearward directed fingers extending below the V-wing. The fingers push clods and trash away and assist in maintaining uniform depth in all soils.
