5000 Series NitroGro™ Applicators
Place Your Nitrogen Where It Counts...When It Counts
J&M's 5000 Series NitroGro Nitrogen Applicators get nitrogen to your plants consistently and efficiently to help maximize your yields. Customize your 5000 Series NitroGro with models available in either 1,000 gallon (5010) or 1,600 gallon (5016) tank capacities, 25' to 40'-4" working widths, and 20", 22" or 30" row spacing. Choose from injectors or knives to consistently deliver nitrogen next to the root to minimize the risk of denitrification. High-tensile grade steel coulter shafts have a true 34" of crop clearance for a longer application window. The heavy-duty 7" x 7" toolbar uses a unique pivot design to raise and lower the center bar on a gradual arc for consistent and perpendicular ground contact. This single pivot design eliminates six pivot points compared to a dual linkage toolbar, reducing wear and maintenance. The toolbar flex and hydraulic down force ensures nitrogen is being placed at your desired depth, no matter the soil conditions. The toolbar can also be used as a rigid bar to suit your application needs. Pivoting points on the 5000 Series applicators use poly bushings for increased durability. Available options include closers, flow monitors, depth control spools, 3" fill valve, Raven 450 controller, ground drive pump and wavy coulters.
Toolbar Pivot Design
Less Pivot Points, Less Wear
The toolbar pivot design raises and lowers the center bar through a designed arc rather than using a parallel linkage design. However, the pivot arm of the toolbar linkage is designed so the arc is more gradual and more consistent when applying the coulter perpendicularly to the ground. This unique arm design eliminates complex pivot points and incurs less wear.
34" Crop Clearance
Extend Your Application Window
34" of true toolbar clearance allows for a long application window.
Para-Linkage Coulters
J&M's Para-Linkage coulter design keeps the applicator knives consistently in the ground while going over rocks and hard soil. As the Para-Linkage coulter rises, the knives rise at the same rate as the disc to ensure consistent fertilizer application at the desired depth. On traditional coulters, as the disc moves over an obstacle the knives swing up at an arc. This causes the knife depth and the fertilizer application to be inconsistent.
Para-Linkage coulters feature greaseless poly-bushings at all pivot locations to reduce maintenance and fatigue.
Row Closers
Adding row closers to your NitroGro seals the nitrogen in place, ensuring more is absorbed by the plant and less is wasted.
