State-of-the-art crop care is essential for a sustainable agriculture. Advanced technologies like PrecisionSpray, SpotSpraying with pulse width modulation and band application increase efficiency and precision. The continuous inside cleaning system of the sprayers minimises residues and protects the environment. These technologies optimise the use of herbicides, fungicides and insecticides and encourage a sustainable plant production.
The quality and the quantity of the yield depend on numerous factors that cannot be influenced directly. Does the seeding method really play a role in the final results? In short: yes. In fact, a very essential one!
To create optimum starting conditions for seeding, the choice of the right seed drill is of major importance.
Which seeding methods are there? Which advantages do they offer? Here you will find the answers to these questions and more information about the respective methods and our products.
How do you achieve optimum sowing quality?
How can you maximise yields, protect the soil and save resources at the same time? Single grain seeding makes it possible! The single grain seed drill can be used flexibly for numerous crops and soil conditions and thus provides innovative solutions for the current challenges in agriculture. Here you will find information on what single grain seeding is and how single grain seed drills work. You will also find an overview of our product range for this seeding method.
How can modern agriculture ensure healthy and fertile soils? The answer is an innovative primary soil cultivation. In view of challenges like climate change and weather extremes, technologies like direct seeding and minimum tillage do not only provide solutions but also stand for a future-proof and sustainable agriculture.

For more than 10 years, HORSCH has been focusing intensively on the singulation of cereals. It is nothing new, but the longtime experiences with this system show the potentials and also the limits. With regard to the changing conditions, do the potentials now outweigh the limits? And what are the benefits?

In the first two parts of this blog series, we focused on the parameters that can be changed directly at the tyre to work in a soil-conserving way. Air pressure adjustment and different tyre dimensions were pointed out as solutions. Thus, the contact area pressure can be reduced, and the soil can be protected sustainably.

In the first part of our blog series, we dealt with the basic situation and the problem of soil compaction. In addition, we described possible parameters for solving the problem. In the second part of this blog series, these points will be discussed in more detail and substantiated with figures and examples.

A lot of different factors played a role with regard to the boom of conservation farming in France. Frédéric Thomas, farmer, pioneer and founder of the trade magazine TCS, looks back.
The universal HORSCH Avatar 12.25 SD has been equipped with some new equipment options, e.g. a new control concept. The intuitive handling concept based on ISOBUS makes it easier for the farmer to adjust, operate and monitor his technology.
The metering system is a particularly innovative feature of the seed drill Versa KR. The main focus of the mechanical seed drill is on the electrically driven metering on the countershaft.
