About the Rebounder!
For ten years now, the Rebounder has proven to be a sensible solution for farmers nation-wide, not only increasing yields but also overall profits. The Rebounder™ seed cover is a simple but effective planting attachment that improves the accuracy and uniformity of in-furrow seed placement on planters and drills. Season after season, the Rebounder™ seed cover has proven itself to be a small investment that pays large dividends at harvest time. To find a Rebounder that is right for you, click on the type of equipment you have: a PLANTER, or a DRILL?

Vigorously Field Tested
As the double discs on a planter open a seed V in wetter, heavier soils, they tend to “orange peel” the side wall. Seeds can lodge on the side wall and not get all of the way to the bottom of the seed V. If you dig in the seed trench where the Rebounder has passed, you will find all of the seeds at the bottom of the seed V. The half moon notch in the end of the Rebounder keeps the Rebounder 1/4 - 1/2” off the bottom of the seed V eliminating any seed drag. When mounted to the seed tube, the Rebounder puts less than one pound of pressure on the seed tube when planting. This small amount of pressure in the seed furrow row eliminates mud from building up when planting in heavy, wet textured soils.
Liquid Fertilizer AttachmentsEach Rebounder has the option of allowing liquid fertilizer or chemical application. This can be accomplished directly in the furrow with the Hose Holder kit or off to each side with our Y-Not Split-It kit. See our section titled Rebounder Optional Fittings for full details.
