For the establishment of both arable and grassland crops, all that is needed is a simple machine that can relieve the farmer from any land preparation, preserving soil health, soil moisture and micro-organisms, and providing a high and vigorous uniformity of the future crop.
Väderstad has by far the most advanced seeding technology in the attribute of precision seed drills for any type of crop, with the Väderstad Seed Hawk knife drill with working widths of 6, 8 and 9 meters.
No-till seeding performance is due to the tine anchor system that creates a clean seed slot, placing both seed and fertilizer on undisturbed soil. With a 7,000-liter hopper divided into three compartments, the machine offers the versatility needed for modern farming.
Seed Hawk establishes the future crop in shallow strips, leaving the rest of the field untouched. The vertical stubble rows next to the young plants provide protection from wind and soil erosion. The double knife system helps warm the soil while retaining moisture. This ensures fast, strong plant growth with good vigor to resist pests and diseases.
The Seed Hawk seed drill has a high-capacity design with high-quality components and few moving parts. Fertilizer and soil-working seed knives are protected with carbide tips. Benefit from low maintenance costs, excellent performance and extremely long field life.
