Compact Seeder

Single Compact disc seeder

The Vredo Single Compact series is an accurate and efficient range of disc seeders designed for inter-seeding into prepared seedbeds or existing stands of turf. At an approximate spacing of 2 3/4″”, seed is placed in a V-shaped slit, at a controllable depth of 3/16” to 1” deep, directly in contact with the soil for maximum germination rate. The slits are then closed by a roller and a level surface is re-established. The Vredo Single Compact series includes precision calibration and a ground driven system allowing inter-seeding to be completed at speeds between 1 and 12 mph. Seed will be accurately sown at a set rate independent of ground speed. The Vredo Single Compact series are 3-point mounted and have two widths available to suit tractor overlap.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Industry leading germination rate
• Minimal surface disruption – no clean up needed
• Proper seed to soil contact to maximize germination
• Each disc is independently suspended allowing continuous disc to soil penetration over undulating ground
