Calf feeding boost
Advantage Plastics says it is revolutionising calf meal storage and handling, making farm life easier, safer, and more efficient this season.
CLAAS harvest centre product manager for Amazone, Steve Gorman, says the mounted combination is ideal for use in light to medium soil structures.
“CombiDisc provides passive soil tillage while the Precea’s high pressure separator delivers precise seed placement at high operating speeds, he says. The seed is separated individually into each seed row and is introduced into the soil via the propulsion channel.”
With a working width of 3m, the CombiDisc is configured with two rows of 410mm diameter serrated discs, mounted in pairs on maintenance- free disc arms. Offering a working depth of 3 to 8cm, adjustment is achieved mechanically, or via an optional hydraulic cylinder controlled from the tractor cab.
“The rapidly-rotating discs provide a very good crumb structure, with the adjustable disc carriers in the wheel tracks and at the machine ends, ensuring a perfect levelling of the seedbed,” says Steve.
The CombiDisc 3000 is coupled to the tractor via Category 2 or 3 lower link mountings, while the seed drill is quickly and safely attached via the QuickLink quick coupling. A range of rollers is available to consolidate the seedbed in a range of soil type and operating conditions.
