a) seeding elements for deep seed planting
two different types of element are available for the medium depth
equipment in relation to the roughness of the seed planting bed:
- for fi nely prepared ground it is advisable to use cutter/planter
shoes with sod breaker and press wheels (fi g. 45);
- for rougher ground and where there are residues, it is more
advisable to use double disc tools placed upstream of the
cutter/planter shoes followed by press wheels (fi g. 46);
For different soils, 2 different types of seed covering element are
available (fi g. 47):
1) farmfl ex wheel (Ø=370 mm) recommended for damp and sandy
soils;
2) rubber "V" wheels more suitable for damp and "difficult"
soils.
b) seeding elements for surface seed planting
The seeding element for surface seed planting has a standard equa-
lizer with rubber wheels: the one at the front is a "sod crusher" with a
rounded shape (having Ø=280 mm), followed by the seed pressing
wheel, also in rubber, with independent seed coverers (fi g. 48).
For different soils, 2 different types of seed covering element are
available (fi g. 49):
1) rubber "V" wheels suitable for damp and diffi cult soils;
2) farmfl ex wheel (Ø=370 mm) suitable for damp and sandy
soils.
