Kverneland U-Drill Plus

The Kverneland u-drill plus carries out seedbed preparation, levelling, reconsolidation, seeding, fertilising and pressing in one pass – featuring high efficiency, large performance and high hectare output as main characteristics. The “plus” stands for the extra feature of the grain and fertiliser version to apply either grain and fertiliser or, alternatively, two different sorts of seeds at the same time. This has been achieved by the divided hopper equipped with two metering devices.

Description

Depending on the working width of this universal trailed seed drill combination, the hopper capacity is either 3000l (3m and 4m) and 4350l (6m). The hopper of the rigid u-drill plus is divided lengthwise and the two metering devices are accordingly positioned either side. The proportion is 40 : 60.

The Kverneland u-drill plus is able to deliver fertiliser application rates up to 400kg/ha and 15kph. The pressurised hopper system of the u-drill 6m fold ensures that these rates are maintained even under the most difficult conditions.

In order to balance the shorter vegetation phase, the phosphoric fertiliser application supports the initial germination and development of the plants in the most efficient way. In trials of spring sown crops, yields have shown increases up to 25% compared to crops where the fertiliser has been applied by other methods.

In addition, in current farming processes flexibility and strong performance are requested since the application of two different seeds in one pass has become more and more popular. The second crop mainly developing after the harvesting of the main crop.
