The Tye is a no-till grain drill designed for pasture and grassland establishment. Grain drills are precision seeding machines that meter and place seed at controlled depths and spacing, making them essential for direct-drilling operations where minimal soil disturbance is required. TYE manufactures agricultural seeding and tillage equipment for farming operations across North America.
This unit is configured with 20 rows spaced 7.5 inches apart, allowing efficient coverage across a working width of approximately 15 feet. It features three separate seed boxes—one each for conventional seed, legume seed, and native grass seed—enabling the operator to plant multiple species in a single pass. The drill is equipped with 16-inch coulters to open the soil and create a furrow for seed placement, and includes one set of 10-inch press wheels to firm soil contact over the seed.
The machine operates via end-wheel drive, meaning the ground-driven wheels power the seed metering mechanism, and is pulled behind a tractor using a pull hitch. This configuration is typical of no-till drills and allows the operator to control seeding rates through ground speed. The used condition of this drill reflects field experience, and prospective buyers should arrange an inspection to assess wear on critical components such as coulters, seed tubes, and drive linkages.
