McFarlane Ag Adds C3-7000 Soil Conditioner To Tillage Line

[Sauk City, Wis.] – [March 17, 2025] – McFarlane Ag, a leader in innovative agricultural equipment, announces the launch of the C3™, a revolutionary, three-in-one, minimum-tillage tool. Designed to optimize field preparation in the spring or fall, the C3 soil management tool efficiently prepares your seedbed while helping reduce fuel and labor costs.

The C3 is a versatile implement that effectively chops residue, crimps cover crops, and conditions the field, creating a superior seedbed for optimal planting. Key benefits of the C3 include:

• Chop residue: The patented seven-blade open-center Dura-Reel® promotes decomposition by breaking down residue and incorporating it into the soil. Its lightweight design and sharp, beveled blades minimize soil disturbance, while its ability to roll, knockdown, and scatter residue promotes faster decomposition and prevents nutrient loss.
• Crimp cover crops: Effectively manage cover crops without relying on herbicides. The C3 can crimp mature cover crops to kill them or crimp immature cover crops to create a protective mulch layer, suppressing weeds while resisting wrapping. Additionally, the C3 can incorporate seed or lightly till the soil, streamlining field operations.
• Condition the soil: The combination of the Dura-Reel® with McFarlane Ag’s three-bar spike-tooth harrow and single rolling basket creates a firm, level seedbed for consistent seed-to-soil contact. Whether farms use it as a stand-alone tool, or as a secondary pass behind primary tillage or a field cultivator, the C3 helps break down tough residue, accelerate decomposition, and incorporate organic matter into the soil.

“The C3 is a game-changer for farmers who demand more out of their tillage tools,” says Gregg Koetting, Key Accounts Manager at McFarlane Ag. “The C3 helps farmers improve their bottom line by saving on fuel and labor, all while achieving the perfect seedbed, ready for planting.”

The C3 is available for purchase through authorized McFarlane Ag dealers.
