CULTIVATION
Suited to a wide variety of soil types, the extensive range of HORSCH soil preparation equipment covers efficient crop residue incorporation, deep soil conditioning and seedbed establishment. Based on tines, discs or a combination of both, all machines are available with numerous roller options to optimise residue breakdown, protect delicate soils, or assist in preserving valuable soil moisture.
SEEDING TECHNOLOGY
HORSCH has built an enviable reputation with the Pronto DC which has set the benchmark for universal drilling systems worldwide. By combining targeted cultivation with consistent seed depth control, optimal soil consolidation and highly accurate seed metering, the Pronto has become the drill of choice for many.
At the opposite end of the crop establishment spectrum, the Avatar SD combines the same highly accurate metering system with a well proven single disc and depth control for direct seeding into challenging soils and residues.
PRECISION PLANTING
The HORSCH Maestro range of precision planters is available in a wide range of configurations to suit most precision seeding requirements. Available in both CV (vacuum metering) and CX (pressure metering) configurations and a choice of bulk or individual seed hoppers, large fertiliser capacity and numerous row management options, the Maestro delivers precision in seeding.
CROP PROTECTION
Available in mounted, trailed and self-propelled configurations, the HORSCH LEEB range of sprayers is designed to manage crop protection accurately and efficiently. The unique LEEB boom control manages the spray boom profile across the ground to maintain optimal plant coverage with a significant reduction in drift.
