ABSTRACT:
An attachment for seed drills whereby a fraction of seed flow can be selectively diverted from an existing flow path to a secondary flow path and in which the diverted percentage of the seed flow can be delivered to a planting depth different from that set at the level of an existing planting shoe. Two levels of seed can be planted simultaneously. A valve mechanism is also provided to selectively guide seed flow either completely through the primary, existing discharge tube and shoe, or to be divided with a selected percentage flowing through the existing discharge tube and the remainder being directed through the secondary or auxiliary tube.
