Flexible operation with single shoot

This seed drill combination with pressurised hopper system delivers even greater flexibility. The pressurised hopper is positioned lengthwise and has a capacity of 2,800 litres or 4,600 litres, divided 50:50 in the direction of travel. Each side of the hopper features a separate metering unit - but feeds the same single shoot seed line.

The two metering units can be controlled independently of each other. Two components can be applied simultaneously in a maximum ratio of 1:5. Moreover, two application maps can be used for site-specific drilling.

The agronomic advantage

  • Targeted placement of mineral fertiliser in the seed band e.g. sulphur fertilisation for wheat, starter fertilisation for malting barley, etc.

  • Mixture of original and farm saved seed or mixture of different dressing grades

  • Sowing a companion crop for cereals without segregation of the seed

  • Planting different cover crops with different seed sizes
