I have a project in mind to add a seed/fertilizer hopper to the back of the cultipacker I recently bought, with the intention to drop seed or fertilizer right after the tilled dirt has been packed down. It would be need to be about 5 1/2 ft wide, so I'm wondering if anyone has ever seen a hopper like that you could buy by itself? I know the all-in-one food plot planters have something like this to drop the seed. If I can't find one already built that would work, then I'm considering having one built to custom fit my cultipacker. Thanks.....

I think Ken Sweet can get you one, might have to go with a 6' and block it off to fit your setup on each end.

I would suggest you consider where you place this inline so that the packer helps to press the seed down for good contact with the seedbed.

Wouldn't a six or seven foot overseeder be better? Do a four step process, till, apply fertilizer, cultipack then run the overseeder.
