Mechanical seed drill for direct seeding of cereals
DIRETTA introduces the segment of in-line seed drills for direct seeding of cereals. The result of GASPARDO's thirty years’ experience in the sector, DIRETTA is characterised by a fixed frame available in the 3 meters by 17 or 19 rows size, ideal for seeding crops such as cereals, soy beans, rapeseed and forage.
DIRETTA features GASPARDO direct seed drill element, capable of exerting a maximum ground pressure of 260kg thanks to HEAVY DUTY structural solutions such as the large diameter toothed disc coulter (475 mm) with trim adjustment spring, wear-resistant cast iron coulter and independent closing wheel arm with dedicated adjustment spring. The seeding depth adjustable by means of the interchangeable depth wheel coupled to the disc coulter, allows easy and quick setting according to the crop and the soil.
The finishing work is completed by a harrow with flexible teeth, consisting of a bearing bar on which four oscillating sections are hinged for fixing the teeth. In this way the harrow is able to follow the undulation of the soil by repositioning the crop residues previously moved by the seeding element.
The fixed frame with semi-mounted tractor hitch supports the seeding elements staggered along the rows of 15.6 or 18 cm. The large 2,090 l hopper in the CORSA version has an internal partition of 1,260 l for the seed and 830 l for the fertilizer.
The transmission is of the mechanical type capable of distributing a quantity of seed from a minimum of 2 up to a maximum of 500 kg/Ha, driven by the toothed support wheel to increase grip on any type of soil.
The DIRETTA model is ideal for medium-small farms that intend to carry out direct sowing on untilled soil or after minimal tillage.
