SAFETY FERTILIZER ATTACHMENT 
The No. 227 Drill can be equipped with the John 
Deere improved safety fertilizer attachment that 
distributes the fertilizer in a narrow strip on each 
side of the row, at the same time the corn is planted. 
Applied in this way, the fertilizer becomes readily 
available as plant food, yet none of it comes in 
contact with the seed, which is protected by a 
layer of soil.
