JC Machinery will exhibit the latest Vredo 3m Agri Air Overseeder, which now comes with the same large pneumatic seed hopper as the award-winning Vredo Agri Twin Overseeder, at Lamma 2016.
The Agri Air is an exciting range of overseeders that are perfect for smaller pastures with slopes or undulating terrain with both excellent stability and manoeuvrability.
These machines are ideal for anyone looking for a professional approach to rejuvenating grassland. After harsh winters, the first silage cut or in autumn, you can still maximise yields per hectare – both grass and milk – by renovating and directly overseeding grassland with the Vredo Agri Overseeder to guaranteesa new and healthy sward.
The Agri Air features a pneumatic hopper that channels the seed directly to the cam wheel. Changing seed types and resetting the reliable calibration is done in the blink of an eye.
The combination of a doubling of the seed capacity (now 450 litres instead of 220 litres) together with the powerful hydraulically driven fan (instead of the electrically driven fan on the 220 litre hopper), enables the Agri Air to handle other seed types, such as rye or barley, that are increasingly sown as green manure in existing grass or stubble.
Also on display at the Lamma Show will be a 4.4m Vredo Agri Twin Overseeder (pictured top) that, like the Agri Air is equipped with the famous proven dual-disc system that delivers a germination rate of 96 per cent. The pairs of discs guide seed into a V-shaped slit in to the sward, whatever the soil conditions – clay, peat, loam or sand, wet or dry.
The seed is covered with soil to protect it from external predators and extreme weather conditions guaranteeing a quick germination and deep rooting of the injected seed.
