Compact disc seed drills suitable for tractors from 140 HP. Robust construction, precise sowing and a capacious seed hopper.
Compact 3 / 4 / 6 / 7.2 meter working width seed drills with fertilizers
Falcon Compact models do not require a very powerful tractor, they are designed sowing of all traditional crops 125 / 150 / 167mm row spacing, also suitable for sowing and unprepared soil. The drill can be optionally equipped with or without fertilizer application.
Sowing, fertilizing and cultivating – in one pass
Falcon COMPACT drill with a wide sowing 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.

Seeding zones
With Falcon Compact seed drills, 7 operations are performed in one pass:
1. Primary soil leveling zone. A precisely leveled surface allows for even consolidation and loosening of the soil for sowing.
2. Soil preparation zone. The soil can be cultivated with various tillage sections – across the entire sowing width or in zones up to 10 cm deep. Primary cultivation enriches the soil with air, levels it and optimally loosens it. It also spreads plant residues.
3. Fertilizer application area. Granulated fertilizer is applied to the root zone of the future plant - directly under each row or between two rows.
4. Soil compaction and deep soil capillarity restoration zone. Good compaction ensures effective water infiltration to the soil surface even in dry conditions.
5. Soil formation for sowing and seed placement zone. The double disc sowing discs effectively form a compacted soil for sowing (V-shaped furrow) and precisely place the seed at the required depth. Due to the high downforce, up to 70 % machine weight can be transferred to the sowing discs. The compacted soil for sowing and the V-shaped furrow ensure excellent seed contact with the soil and soil moisture.
6. Lateral seed pressing zone. The copying wheel presses the V-shaped groove with the seed, thus compressing the seed with the soil from the side. The soil above the seed remains loose, which significantly improves seed germination.
7. Seed covering and soil leveling zone. Integrated tines ensure excellent seed covering and precise soil surface leveling.
