Master precision seeding with the Precea from AMAZONE

Ever tighter time windows for sowing require higher outputs, the right combination of operations in the field and the maximum precision in order to place the seed at exactly the right depth and at the ideal time. This ensures uniform and gapless plant emergence - especially in single-seed sowing such as maize, sunflowers, oilseed rape and other crops. 

Nevertheless: extreme temperatures and drought can always threaten the crop and reduce potential yields. This can be remedied by making better use of the subsoil by encouraging the young roots to grow into deeper soil layers by targeted under-root fertilisation. Precise placement of fertiliser in the correct location, below or next to the seed, also saves on fertiliser usage, increasing and prolonging nutrient availability, since a higher soil moisture content will enable better, long-term nutrient mobilisation, especially with phosphate fertilisers. Tight nutrient balances can also be maintained, whilst, at the same time, increasing yield.

This efficient and yield-increasing use of finite resources at the ideal time is the objective when precision seeding. And this is precisely why AMAZONE developed the Precea-TCC trailed precision seeder.
