No. On the smaller seed plants such as clover it is critical that the seed be placed in the top 1/4 inch of soil. If the seed is too deep it will not grow. Using a drag harrow after seeding is very risky and will over-bury a percentage of the seed. The Till-Ease Model 2148 Cultipacker will uniformly press the seed into the ground and prevent over-burying. On larger seed plants where depth is not as critical a drag harrow can be used to incorporate the seed into the ground but a cultipacker like the Till-Ease Model 2148 is still an excellent tool for providing good seed-to-soil contact.
