Comparison of pneumatic sowing machines by the number of seeds in the slots of the discs and the distance between the slots

Abstract

This article compares the pneumatic seeders currently in use. The comparison results provide the following indicators specifying the number of seedlings in the clusters, the distance between the clusters, the width of the clusters and the length of the clusters. Based on the results obtained from 3 sowing machines selected for clustering sowing of seeds, it was determined that it is advisable to improve the sowing disc in order to improve it so that the indicators of the sowing machine in 3 variants exceed the indicators of other devices.
