Gandy metering wheels precisely distribute granular materials like granular fertilizer, insecticides and various seeds (small grains, alfalfa, soybeans) at specific rates, with different colored wheels designed for different materials and application volumes, ensuring accurate application for crop health and management. 

• Precision Application: The wheels have specific cell patterns that match the size and density of the product being applied, controlling the flow rate as the wheel turns.
• Material Specificity: Different colored wheels are used for different products:
  • Black (C): For low rates of fine seeds (alfalfa, canola) and granular chemicals (herbicides, pesticides).
  • Red (F): For fertilizer and small grains (wheat, oats, barley, rice) at higher rates.
  • Yellow (V): For very high rates of fertilizer, delivering more than the red wheel.
  • White (S): For larger seeds like soybeans and field peas.

Gandy metering wheels ensure farmers apply the right amount of product to the right spot, optimizing yields and reducing waste, a design innovation by E.S. Gandrud.
