Double hopper Grain & Fertiliser

• Both components are metered separately and are transported together via the distribution tower or the distribution towers into the seed coulter.

• The G&F double hopper system allows for the simultaneous application of seed and fertiliser as contact fertilisation.

• The fertiliser is immediately available to the young plant and thus contributes to a quick early growth. This system should only be used in appropriate climatic conditions and with the assistance of a crop production consultant.

• Not only seed and fertiliser, but also 2 different seeds can be transported, metered and sown separately.

The G&F double hopper system allows for the simultaneous application of seed and fertiliser as contact fertilisation. Both metering devices meter into one common distribution tower. Seed and fertiliser are thus placed together in one furrow. The fertiliser is immediately available to the young plant and thus contributes to a quick early growth. This system should only be used in appropriate climatic conditions and with the assistance of a crop production consultant. Not only seed and fertiliser, but also 2 different seeds can be transported, metered and sown separately.

HORSCH SingularSystem

• Singulation of cereals combined with a perfect placement precision due to the Funck metering device, the skid and the press roller

• Quick and flexible adaption of the singulation pockets depending on the crop and the seed rate

• The perfect distribution in the seeded area allows for an optimum water and nutrient supply of the plant and thus reduces competition.

• Easy switching between Funck metering device, bypass or stainless steel tube depending on the seed quality, the seed rate and the crop

The HORSCH SingularSystem enhances the proven TurboDisc coulter design by integrating a specialized skid and height-adjustable catching roller to ensure precise furrow formation and optimal seed-to-soil contact. Utilizing the electric-driven Funck metering device, the system mechanically singulates up to 100 grains per second based on crop-specific discs, though it requires clean, uniformly sized seed for peak performance (ideally up to 250 grains/m²). For higher application rates or non-uniform material, a bypass system allows the unit to function as a conventional seed drill while still benefiting from the superior seed embedding provided by the specialized coulter hardware.

Fertiliser and seed flow control

• For a complete monitoring of the seed and fertiliser hoses

• Warning if a pneumatic hose is blocked

• Sowing errors are avoided

• Monitoring of the pneumatic flow at the distribution tower

The fertiliser and seed flow control is a reasonable electronic solution to prevent sowing errors. The sensors control the flow directly behind the distribution tower and detect blockages. Thus, the individual pneumatic hoses are monitored and within seconds you get a notification in the terminal – both acoustic and visual.

Spelt pneumatics

• Optimised pneumatic hosing for seeds with husks

• chamfered seed flow tubes prevent the husks from getting wedged

• Optional seed flow sensors support the prevention of gaps

Sowing spelt with husks always is a challenge for farmers. HORSCH developed a special pneumatic adaption for this crop which has been optimised over several years. To make sure that the spelt with husk does not wedge and cause blockings, all corners and edges in the pneumatic system are checked and rough edges are removed. For example, the seed tubes at the seed coulters are chamfered and the seed hoses are directly attached to the coulters with cable ties. The seed flow sensors that are recommended for sowing spelt are also chamfered. Thus, spelt can be transported smoothly through the pneumatics and gaps are prevented.

Hydraulic coulter pressure increase TurboDisc coulters

• Hydraulic coulter pressure increase via tractor control device

• 4-point cabin suspension

• Very high driving comfort on long working days and in unfavourable conditions

Due to the option of a hydraulic coulter pressure increase, the coulter pressure can be increased in the tractor cabin via a tractor control device when sowing in uneven soil conditions. The important feature is the easy handling of the system as from a plant production point of view an even emergence is the prerequisite for the customised and safe management of crop populations. If the coulter pressure is too high, compaction in the area of the seed furrow is increased. This has a negative influence on the development of the first germination roots. If the coulter pressure is too low, however, the sowing depth may vary.

The coulter pressure can be increased via the tractor control device

Pre-emergence marker

• Fully automatic control via the tramline rhythm

• The aggressiveness of the pre-emergence marker is adjusted via a depth stop.

• Mounted directly on the seed coulter, precise depth control via the press wheel

• Easy activation and deactivation of the pre-emergence marker via ISOBUS

The pre-emergence markers are recommended for crops that require maintenance measures before the laid tramlines become visible. They are controlled fully automatically via the tramline rhythm of the terminal. The mounting on the seed coulter allows for a precise depth control via the press wheel. The aggressiveness of the pre-emergence marker is adjusted via a depth stop.

Spring-loaded track-eradicator tines

• Loosening compacted soil in the tractor track

• Fixing with a bolt in a hole system without tools

• For rotary harrows or disc harrow systems, a shallower cultivation depth is possible

• Leave an even field without tracks

The spring-loaded track eradicator tines allow for loosening the soil in the tractor track. They can be fixed without any tools with a bolt in a hole system. For seedbed preparation the working tool can be adjusted more shallowly as the tracks that have to be eliminated have already been loosened. The tines are suitable for mulch seed only to a limited extent as they may be prone to clogging in case of high amounts of harvest residues.
