It use for seeds and fertilizer at the same time for fertilization & plating.

Specification

Usage of a Seed Cum Fertilizer Drill

1. Simultaneous Seeding and Fertilizing:
   • The primary function of a seed cum fertilizer drill is to sow seeds and apply fertilizers at the same time. This helps ensure that plants receive the necessary nutrients for growth as soon as they are planted, resulting in better crop yields.
2. Row Cropping:
   • It is commonly used in row cropping systems, where seeds are sown in rows with a consistent spacing. This drill helps in planting a variety of crops like wheat, maize, rice, and pulses.
3. Improving Soil Fertility:
   • By simultaneously applying fertilizers along with seeds, the drill ensures that the fertilizers are placed in close proximity to the seeds, facilitating better nutrient absorption and promoting healthy crop growth.
4. Efficient Planting:
   • This machine reduces the time and effort involved in planting and fertilizing, as it performs two operations in one go, making it especially useful for large agricultural fields.
5. Suitable for Different Soil Types:
   • A seed cum fertilizer drill can be adjusted to work in various soil conditions, whether it’s dry, moist, or compacted, providing flexibility in farming practices.

Working Process

1. Filling the Seed and Fertilizer Compartments:
   • The seed and fertilizer compartments of the machine are filled with the respective materials (seeds and fertilizers). The machine typically has separate hoppers for seeds and fertilizers to prevent mixing before application.
2. Seeding Mechanism:
   • The seeding mechanism is designed to drop seeds into the soil at the correct depth and spacing. This is often achieved using a set of rotating discs, coulters, or seed tubes that ensure even distribution.
3. Fertilizer Application:
   • Fertilizers are dispensed through a separate set of outlets or tubes that deliver the nutrients directly into the soil, usually near the seed line. The fertilizer is applied at a controlled rate to ensure uniform coverage.
4. Soil Incorporation:
   • After seeds and fertilizers are applied, the drill’s press wheels or soil closers press the soil over the seed, ensuring proper seed-to-soil contact for effective germination.
5. Depth Control:
   • Many seed cum fertilizer drills come with adjustable depth control mechanisms, ensuring that seeds are planted at an optimal depth for germination. The depth can be adjusted based on the crop and soil type.
