Revitalising the soil
TERRADISC T with AMICO F
For high output application during stubble cultivation or seedbed preparation, PÖTTINGER has equipped trailed 8 and 10 m wide TERRADISC T models with a distribution system. The tillage and simultaneous seed or fertiliser application steps can now be completed in a single pass.
Versatile operations
TERRADISC disc harrows with a distribution system can be used for stubble cultivation as well as loosening to a depth of 15 cm. Different applications can be covered by a distribution rail that can be flexibly adjusted in angle:
Apply fertiliser for rapid plant development
Sow cover crops
High output operations
In just one pass, fertiliser and cover crops are sown directly into the soil using this resource-saving process.
By feeding fertiliser into the raised flow of soil, it is incorporated and covered straight away. The fertiliser does not lose any of its effectiveness and is immediately available for the plants. This process is suitable for seedbed preparation in spring or for replenishing nutrients with granular trace elements in autumn.
Cover crops are directly stimulated to germinate because they are immediately covered and consolidated by the packer. This can be done during shallow stubble cultivation.
Driving speeds above 10 km/h in combination with the wide working widths of 8 and 10 m ensure an enormous output.
AMICO front hopper
The AMICO front hopper in combination with the TERRADISC offers the possibility to apply fertiliser, sow a cover crop, or do both at the same time. The capacity of 1,700 or 2,400 litres and a division of 60:40 ensures a wide range of applications. The hopper is available with one or two metering units.
Greatest operational flexibility
To ensure convenient operation, the AMICO front hopper is equipped with ISOBUS as standard. The material is applied using a single shoot process with a pressurised hopper system. This means that the two different seeds or fertilisers are not mixed until after metering unit. Mixing before application is therefore not necessary, which eliminates the risk of segregation in the tank. One or two metering units can be controlled site-specifically by the intelligent control system. Furthermore, the hopper can also be used in commination with third-party equipment thanks to the ISOBUS control system without any issues.
