The Base Parameters of the Grain Seed Disc Planter

The technological process of traditional grain production includes a number of operations: soil cultivation fertilization sowing sowing care harvesting. To perform the above operations a large number of energy-saturated and metal-intensive equipment is involved repeatedly moving across the field which negatively affects its structure and as a result leads to a crop shortage. The demand for diesel fuel in energy-intensive operations can reach 65-125 kg/ha although in a number of European countries this figure does not exceed 25-45 kg/ha. An effective way to reduce costs in the production of grain crops is to combine several operations in one pass of the unit such as decompacting the soil and applying the main fertilizer preparing the soil for sowing sowing and others.
