Customer-specific plot seeder solutions

Our customers' requirements regarding a plot seeder for field experimentation generally vary considerably. In many areas this is just the nature of things. A wide variety of soils and soil cultivation systems require different openers. Trials extend from quite simple yield experiments to complex trials such as experiments for crop protection products that are applied at the same time as planting or experiments on different row spacings and/or placement depths. Thanks to over 55 years of experience in field trials technology, WINTERSTEIGER can provide a plot seeder that is perfectly matched to your requirements for all these cases - whether for drill sowing or precision spaced planting.
