Seeding combinations: preparing the seedbed and sowing in a single pass
Optimising seeding operations is a major concern for farms in search of productivity. Reducing the number of passes is a real priority from both an agronomic and an economic point of view. Combination seed drills meet these objectives by preparing the soil, seeding, and sometimes even fertilising in a single pass. This saves time, labour and fuel. Combination seed drills are particularly beneficial when time is limited for seeding.
KUHN seeding combinations: a wide range to suit your requirements
KUHN has a wide range of seeding combinations adapted to any conditions. They are robust, precise, adaptable, and ensure user comfort:
- Rigid pneumatic seeding combinations (VENTA)
- Folding Pneumatic seeding combinations with front hopper (HR RCS + BTFR).
These combinations are designed to be quick and easy to hitch/unhitch to/from the tillage implement, with no specific tools required.
So, you can benefit from all the advantages of KUHN power harrows, renowned for their robustness, longevity and low maintenance costs!
The seeding bars are guided by the power harrow’s roller to ensure a constant seeding depth, irrespective of soil preparation. This concept ensures regular crop emergence and uniform establishment all over the plot.
You can also choose the seeding unit that suits your needs from KUHN’s wide range which includes seeding bars with Suffolk coulters, single discs, double discs, or SEEDFLEX seeding units.
Pneumatic seeding combinations
Pneumatic seeding combinations use the flow of air in the supply hoses to send the seeds into the seeding units. This concept is extremely precise and produces uniform seeding and crop emergence.
KUHN’s rigid pneumatic integrated models include the VENTA, an easy-to-use, reliable, and compact model, as well as folding seeding combinations with added front hoppers, such as HR RCS + BTFR. These combinations are capable of fast working speeds and high output, as well as allowing to carry out three important operations in one pass: tillage, seeding, and fertilisation.
