With the new TERRASEM CLASSIC models, PÖTTINGER offers smooth running and high output technology for covering large areas. The series is equipped without tillage tools and is designed for farms that use a separate seedbed preparation process.
The time window to allow the soil to dry between seedbed preparation and drilling is extended by using two distinct processes. A smearing of the seed slot is avoided. In addition, it is possible to focus on mechanical weed control during a dedicated tillage process.
The proven tyre packer provides the necessary consolidation ahead of the coulter to create perfect germination conditions for the seed. Consolidation is necessary because the soil has been loosened many times and needs to be connected to the moist subsoil in order to ensure the capillary action needed for water to reach the seed and provide the level of moisture required for germination.
With a large seed hopper volume of up to 5,100 litres (optional) and increased driving speeds, optimum use can be made of the short sowing time windows.
Thanks to their versatility and excellent manoeuvrability, TERRASEM mulch seed drills enjoy an enthusiastic following.
The wide tyres ensure perfect consolidation ahead of seed placement.
The machine is supported by all wheels at headlands when raised out of work.
The chassis frame always remains in the same position while the disc harrow and coulter rails are lifted.
Each packer wheel is individually mounted - this prevents smearing of the soil surface at the headland.
The TERRASEM CLASSIC series has a low power requirement thanks to its lighter construction. Lower power tractors can be used for drilling, increasing the flexibility of the farm's resources. Larger tractors can then be used for primary tillage.
