Compact disc seed drills suitable for tractors from 140 HP. Robust construction, precise sowing and a capacious seed hopper.
Falcon Compact - soil preparation and sowing in one pass with a tractor with less power
Falcon Compact for sowing all common crops 125 / 150 / 167 mm inter-row spacing, including most cereals, legumes, green manures, as well as some types of clover and oilseed crops on unprepared soil.
In one single pass, the drill ensures pre-sowing tillage, seedbed preparation, soil compaction and reliable sowing over a wide range of sowing rates 0,5 to 350 kg/ha.
Falcon Compact can now be equipped with turbo discs cultivation section, for direct (No-till) for sowing or noragine Cultivation section, for belt (Strip-till) sowing.
Highlights of Falcon Compact drills
Easily replaceable front working section
Falcon Compact is now also easily adaptable to different drilling technologies by changing the front working section. The machine can work in minimum tillage with a disc section, strip-till with a tine section or no-till with a turbo disc section.
Full section control with automatic section switch-off
Automatic section control ensures precise drilling in the corners and headlands of the field, avoiding overlapping or unfilled gaps. The ability to freely adjust the width of the section cut-off, with the smallest section being a single sowing disc, allows for maximum precision. The edges of the field are sown after the main part of the field, resulting in an even and high quality germination.
Variable rate sowing of fertiliser and seed
Based on soil fertility maps, Falcon seed drills can automatically vary the amount of seed sown in different areas of the field, with more fertile areas being sown more densely, and less fertile areas being sown less frequently. This reduces seed costs, ensures more even crop emergence and increases overall yield potential.
Smart control with Farmet Connect via iPad tablet
The new generation of intelligent software allows you to conveniently control the drill and monitor all key parameters in real time. A clear user interface ensures quick changes of settings and precise process control. The system helps to optimise performance, reduce the chance of errors and provide greater working comfort.
Compact drill design
The compact and lighter design - up to 7.2 m working width - reduces the need for traction and allows you to work with tractors of lower power while maintaining high productivity. The robust frame construction ensures durability and reliable operation, even under difficult conditions. Lower weight reduces fuel consumption and operating costs, making it a cost-effective choice.
Parallel drilling section
The parallel-track design of the drilling section ensures precise drilling depth and perfect following of the soil surface, even in uneven conditions. The even pressure of the sowing foot on the soil ensures uniform seed placement over the entire working area.
Integrated additional hopper
The integrated additional fine seed hopper provides even more flexibility during sowing. The system allows you to sow up to three different products in one pass - main crop, fertiliser and small seeds or intercrops. This allows you to use your time more efficiently, reduce the number of passes in the field and accurately carry out several operations simultaneously.
Premium 3-year warranty
All Farmet equipment comes with a 3-year warranty. The company pays particular attention to the high quality and reliability of its machinery. This commitment reflects the company's long-standing philosophy based on precision machining, durability and long service life.

Seeding zones
- Primary soil levelling zone. The precisely levelled surface allows for even consolidation and loosening of the soil for sowing.
- Soil preparation area. The soil can be cultivated in different tillage sections, either across the entire drilling width or in zones up to 10 cm deep. Primary tillage enriches the soil with air, levels it and optimises loosening. It also spreads plant residues.
- Fertiliser application zone. The granular fertiliser is placed in the root zone of the future plant, either directly under each row or between two rows.
- A zone for soil compaction and restoration of deep soil capillarity. Good compaction ensures that water reaches the soil surface efficiently, even in dry conditions.
- Soil formation for sowing and seed placement area. The double disc sowing discs efficiently create a compacted soil for sowing (V-shaped furrow) and precisely place the seed at the right depth. Thanks to the high clamping force, up to 70 kg of the % machine weight can be transferred to the sowing discs. The compacted seedbed and the V-shaped furrow ensure excellent seed contact and soil moisture.
- Lateral seed clamping zone. The copying wheel squeezes the V-shaped groove with the seed, so that the seed and the soil are pressed together sideways. The soil above the seed remains loose, which significantly improves seed germination.
- Seed cover and soil levelling zone. The integrated coulters ensure perfect seed coverage and precise levelling of the soil surface.
All sowing functions in one go: cultivation, fertiliser application and sowing
Falcon Compact seed drill for a wide range from 0.5 to 350 kg/ha in one go cultivates the soil, prepares the seedbed, compacts the soil, and sows seeds and applies fertilizer with high quality.

Used for production extremely high quality materials and applies eXtra STEEL line The technology guarantees long-term use even in the most difficult conditions – due to the high elasticity of the frame and the low weight of the machine itself. Massive compact design Shortened, extremely compact and robust design. Large seed box capacity Single or double hopper with a capacity of 2800-5000 litres and a wide filling opening. Maintenance-free bearings All 490 mm diameter discs are mounted for completely lubrication-free operation – with rubber overload protectors. Maintenance-free mounting points for the sowing discs The durable and maintenance-free rubber mounting of the seed discs helps adapt to the terrain and provides protection against overloads.
The minimal number of adjustment and lubrication points ensures that working with the machine, its operation and subsequent maintenance are extremely simple and easy for everyone to master.
Simple hopper filling A wide and long service platform ensures safe and convenient filling of the seed box with seeds. Adjustable side deflectors Side deflectors, adjustable in height and length, are designed to control the treated soil and ensure smooth connection of passes. Setting the working depth of the tillage section Easy adjustment of working depth according to a clearly understandable scheme using spacers on the piston rods. Farmet dispenser Modern seed dispenser with replaceable coils. Adjusting the sowing depth Very simple and quick setting of the required sowing depth. Simple harrow adjustment The coulter pressure can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the coulter pin, and the coulter can be lifted if necessary and not used during drilling.
Compact design The machine's design is more compact and lighter, but maintains high requirements for strength and durability even in the most difficult working conditions. Front Flexi-Board ironing board The hydraulically operated Flexi-Board cross-levelling board provides excellent soil levelling. It is an optional extra on the machine. Front pneumatic roller Pneumatic roller with reinforced wheels for additional soil compaction. This is an optional additional equipment for the machine. Seedbed preparation The two-row disc cultivation section perfectly levels the soil surface in the transverse direction and loosens the soil at the level of the seed base. Stand with two discs The discs of the cultivation section are mounted in pairs on a stand. Strong and wide rubber mounts reliably protect the working part from damage. Optimal soil compaction In front of each seeding disc is a wheeled roller made of reinforced tires. The tires have a special construction that resists adhesion in wet clay. Adjusting the sowing depth Possibility of separately adjusting different sowing depths for even and odd sowing discs. Double seeding discs Thanks to their proven design, they penetrate the soil perfectly even with a large amount of crop residue and, together with the press wheel, place the seeds at the set depth.
