With less surface soil disturbance, strip tillage will retain organic material, reduce erosion and conserve fuel by only tilling the strip that is planted into. The Unverferth Raptor strip tillage tool was built for professional growers looking to take advantage of the benefits that strip tillage can provide. Pull-type models feature a front-folding toolbar and vertical-folding row units for narrow transport and compact storage. When applying fertilizer. The ground-breaking TerrainPro row unit allows each row to travel up and down independently for the most consistent row-to-row tillage depth and fertilizer placement. The Raptor strip-tillage tool is the first all-in-one solution for banding fertilizer and features greater operator visibility, easy filling when equipped with fertilizer and a row unit with unmatched performance.
Features may include:
ALL-IN-ONE SOLUTIONThe pull-type Unverferth Raptor strip tillage tool can be ordered with an integrated dry or liquid fertilizer system for banding fertilizer directly in the row during the strip tillage pass. Pull-type toolbars can also be ordered to just perform a strip-tillage pass along with 3-point mounted toolbars.
MODELSThe Unverferth Raptor strip tillage tool can be ordered as a pull-type or 3-point mounted toolbar. ST models feature a pull-type designed toolbar without a fertilizer application system while MT models feature a 3-point mounted toolbar.

LEAD COULTERThe 20” diameter lead coulter features 1,500 lbs. of down pressure to slice through the toughest soils and 6-bolt greaseable hubs with 5 layers of seal protection for long-term, trouble-free use.
DEPTH CONTROL WHEELIndependent row unit depth is maintained by the crowfoot depth control wheel that runs between the row cleaners and the shank for consistent shank depth from row to row.
STRIP TILL SHANKThe shank features tool-free depth adjustment from 4” to 12” deep and a convenient depth gauge which allows the operator to quickly and easily adjust each shank.
CLOSING COULTERSThe 18” notched concave closing coulters on each side of the shank keeps the soil in the path of the trailing basket.
