Focus TD
Strip till with fertilizing and seeding
Focus TD
TARGETED LOOSENING, TARGETED FERTILISATION, TARGETED SOWING
Characteristics
Features of Focus TD
- Strip cultivation principle: soil is cultivated only in the seed rows
- Combines deep soil loosening, fertiliser placement, seedbed preparation and sowing in one pass
- Removal of harvest residues from the root area and precise and deep fertiliser-depot placement below the seed rows
- Concave discs level and close slots
- The hollow discs can be lifted to form the ridges
- Packer for deep consolidation
- Turbo Disc seed coulter for precise seed placement
- 6 m working width
- Power demand starting at 175 kW / 240 HP
Work Steps of Focus TD
Zone I: Soil cultivation
- a) Deep soil loosening, exactly below the seed rows
- b) Exact definition of the root area
- c) Harvest residues are removed from the root area
- d) Fertiliser-depot placement below the seed rows
- e) Transport of wet soil into the germination horizon
Zone II: Concave discs
Can be adjusted to various modes of operation:
- a) Levelling and closing slots
- b) Forming ridges
Zone III: Tyre packer
- a) Defined, deep consolidation
- b) Creation of soil contact
- c) Optimum seedbed preparation in front of the seed coulters
Zone IV: Seed coulters
- a) Sowing into wet soil that is free of harvest residues
- b) TurboDisc seed coulters for a precise seed placement
TerraGrip tines efficiently remove straw and lumps from the sowing horizon Even in difficult climatic condition the Focus TD allows for a good emergence and an optimum development of the plant Row spacings of 30 cm for rape seed and row crops and of 15 cm for crop sowing are possible Hollow discs form ridges or level the soil according to the requirements
