The twin-chamber hopper means that the new Centaya-C Super offers the option of sowing companion and undersown crops in addition to the main cash crop. These are of great benefit for weed suppression and for increasing erosion control and biodiversity. In addition, the simultaneous application of fertiliser is an efficient solution that leads to rapid seedling development and high field emergence.

This sowing technique offers farmers and contractors a variety of establishment methods and a high degree of flexibility by the combination of seed and fertiliser.

The 2,000 l twin-chamber hopper means that the Centaya-C Super is extremely productive. The hopper can be divided in a ratio of either 60:40 or 70:30 depending on the customer’s requirements.

The ISOBUS-controlled Centaya-C Super enables separate and precise metering of the various application materials via the infinitely adjustable electric metering units with sowing rates from 0.5 - 400 kg/ha. The Centaya-C Super can be used at forward speeds of up to 12 km/h with row spacings of 12.5 and 15 cm.

In conjunction with the TwinTeC double disc coulter, it is possible to apply two different seed types or seed and fertiliser at two different entry points using the double-shoot process. In this case, the first medium is embedded in the seed furrow via the TwinTeC coulter and the second medium is conveyed to an additional outlet on the TwinTeC coulter via a separate conveyor system and placed in the soil in front of the depth guidance roller. This offset placement means, for instance, that fertiliser can be targeted, thereby ensuring a more comprehensive supply to the plant. 

The 400 mm RoTeC pro coulter enables the application of two media utilising the single-shoot process. In this case, the individually metered media are brought together in the single disc coulter and fed to a single entry point using the same conveying system. This enables, for example, a small amount of fertiliser to be placed directly in the row along with the grain.

The Centaya-C Super can also be used in conjunction with the GreenDrill 200 catch crop seeder box for the simultaneous sowing of catch crops or fine seeds. This combination allows a third material to be applied to the soil surface via baffle plates. In this respect, the seed is fed directly from the 200 l mounted hopper down to baffle plates behind the seed drill.
