The seeding unit with the seed drill provides an option of seeding another type of crop, for example, when combined with the OMEGA OO_FL seed drill, it is possible to plant up to three types of seeds, or it can be used for the application of micro-granulate.
In combination with STRIEGEL-PRO, the ALFA DRILL seeding unit can be used for establishing catch crop after harvest, or for the application of micro-granulate.
The combination of the seeding unit with a disc cultivator offers a considerable utilization. In one pass, you can do good-quality stubble breaking and establish catch crop or greening in the shallow-cultivated soil.

“I purchased the ALFA DRILL 400 unit together with the SWIFTERDISC XO 5000F disc cultivator. After the first experience, I have to say it was a good choice. The savings in the costs of another pass that would have to be done with a seed drill or a spreader are quite substantial.”

CATCH CROP ESTABLISHMENT
Catch crop is grown to improve soil conditions; it aerates soil and creates organic matter that continuously subsides. Each type of catch crop (tare grass, phacelia, buckwheat, scarlet clover, Indian millet, mustard) has a different task because the roots of each catch crop reach a different depth. The roots transfer phosphorus and other elements from lower soil layers to the top. After incorporation, the elements are available for the next crop. In summer, the catch crop creates a shadow, eliminates the evaporation of moisture from soil, and reduces the risk of erosion.
