Sowing and Planting Technology
All about sowing and planting technology
Today, seeding and planting technology play a crucial role in increasing efficiency and sustainability in agriculture. From precision seeders to advanced planting methods, these techniques are “game changers” that lead to higher yields and responsible agriculture. In the columns below you will find our solutions for in seeding and planting technology.
The sowing and planting technology range
Seed drills
Väderstad seeders combine high-speed soil preparation, seeding and pressing in a single operation. In the combi versions, fertilizer is accurately placed along with the seed between standard seeding rows during the same pass. By reducing the number of operations, these seeders save on fuel and conserve soil moisture, leading to better germination and perfect crop emergence.
Precision seed drills
Precision seeders guarantee uniform seed placement and depth, even at different driving speeds and field conditions, without overlap on headlands. In doing so, seeding accuracy remains constant regardless of external factors such as vibrations or slopes. This leads to evenly maturing crops and increases the likelihood of maximum yields.
The impact of modern sowing technology
In today’s agriculture, seeding technology is a key factor that can influence the efficiency and productivity of crop production. In recent decades, seeding technology has made quite a technical and qualitative leap. Consequently, modern seeding techniques increasingly use advanced (precision) seeders to precisely control seeding depth and spacing. This results in simultaneous germination and optimal plant density, ultimately leading to higher yields.
The role of planting technology in agriculture
Knowing about, and implementing, the right planting technique(s) is another crucial aspect that can improve the sustainability and efficiency of farming practices. With the right planting technique, arable farmers can optimize crop growing conditions.
With Väderstad machines, you are assured of reliability and quality: the right seeding and planting techniques advanced to the right equipment.
