What we do
Plant As Early As Possible In An Ideal Planting Window.
Farmers are stewards of our natural resources. We are subject to the climate and weather, but we control how we best react to, work with, and protect our best asset, the soil. We are given a certain set of conditions. We need to control how we interface with these natural resources. See what our farmers say.
The ReEnvision Ag Planter system allows farmers to be the best stewards of the environment by reducing tillage and allowing the soil to be healthier. The soil is our biggest asset and we want to protect it. We don’t want it to erode or degrade.
By adapting farming practices that reduce the use of fossil fuels, store more carbon, and do not pollute water, we are saving money by not wasting fertilizer, lowering our machinery costs, and lowering fuel expenses all while improving the organic matter, water penetrability and fertility of our soils. Creating this win/win brings better food to the table, ensures the future quality of the soil, and keeps farmers productive with lower costs and greater profitability.
Company's story
The simplest and most precise way to plant a seed with the least amount of soil contact is to press a seed into the soil and fill the remaining hole. That’s what we do.
SInce 1857 the place where a planter touches the soil, the money spot, has changed only one time.
Our seed spike is designed for the Soil Health Era. As more and more farmers adopt cover crops and no till, more and more farmers are learning that disc openers just don’t cut it. We’ve lost 27% of our days suitable for planting with heavy weather events. It’s now time for change.
Our planter system creates value for the farmer by adding more precision to the planting process, creating a wider planting window, and planting in more diverse conditions. It minimizes the chance for soil compaction, improves soil health, and maximizes carbon sequestration. All of these elements bring economic profit to the farmer.

The financial gain to farmers comes in Five areas:
1. A wider planting window.
2. Reduced Compaction.
3. Increased yield from better seed placement.
4. Farmers moving to a minimal soil contact can get up to $20 per acre for carbon sequestration credit.
5. Using the SeedSpike™ reduces field passes for a disc ripper and field cultivator saving farmers up to $35 per acre in labor, machinery, and fuel costs.
Our source of competitive advantage lies in the intellectual property of our SeedSpike™ planting system. The entire row crop planting industry is monolithic as they all use a set of double disc openers to create a seed trench. ReEnvision Ag and our planter system hold the only provisional patent on a system of placing the seeds using a cone-shaped dibble to plant the seeds in a precise location at an exact spacing. This system widens the planting window, optimizes planting depth and spacing, and minimizes soil contact compared to currently used technology.
