The agronomical advantages of the Precea

More water for seed and fertiliser 

The singled seeds pass through the propulsion channel into the pre-formed seed furrow, where it is reliably placed at the correct depth by the catcher roller with press wheel. The trailing V-Press rollers close the furrow and firm the soil for optimum seed/soil contact and reconsolidation. Soil closure is complete - both the seeds and under-root fertilisation have access to the groundwater. Perfect emergence conditions with the Precea. Tight operating windows with optimal sowing conditions can be utilised profitably.

With Precea comes reliable, successful sowing

The maximum theoretical yield potential of an individual plant is defined by the genetics of the seed. The actual yield potential, in turn, is determined by a variety of other factors and parameters and this, ultimately, is gradually reduced during the plant's life cycle through abiotic and biotic stress factors. What remains in terms of potential is the actual yield of the crop that can be harvested.

In order to increase yields stress factors that can inhibit growth thus must be reduced - as comprehensively and as early as possible.

The first steps are taken by ensuring better sowing: the first step is sowing at the correct time and in the best possible climatic conditions. Secondly, the precise placement of the seed at the right depth in the soil is essential to optimise the physiological developmental of the seedling. Thirdly, optimum supply of water to the seedling is very important - and therefore good reconsolidation and access to water-bearing soil layers. Furthermore, the availability of nutrients through precise under-root fertilisation is important to enable the young roots to grow, especially at depth - in order to take up water and the nutrients dissolved in it in the deeper subsoil, even during dry periods.

The high output, high precision, good reconsolidation and adapted fertilisation of the Precea do all of this - ensuring good yields and high efficiency.
