Abstract
An apparatus and method for depositing fertilizer and seed in a single-pass, double-shoot manner utilize a planting unit that includes a frame, a disk arrangement, first and second product delivery arrangements and a resilient mounting arrangement for attaching the second product delivery arrangement to the frame. The rotating disk cuts a furrow in a planting surface for receiving a first agricultural product such as fertilizer from the first product delivery arrangement. The second product delivery arrangement has a cutting edge that cuts a vertically and horizontally offset trench in a side wall of the furrow for receiving a second agricultural product such as seed. The resilient mounting arrangement provides limited resilient movement about a neutral position of the second product delivery arrangement under action of the soil on the second product delivery arrangement.
