Description of Machine

The Duncan Ag Vineyard Seeder is either a single
curved disc or double disc drill with dual boxes for
seed and fertilizer. The drill is carried and
operated from the three point linkage of the
tractor. The sowing depth control is achieved from
two trailing wheels with individual wheel retraction
stops. The right hand depth control wheel is also
the drive wheel for the seeder unit. A wide variety
of seeds can be sown from the seed box, from
small seeds like turnip and rape to large seeds
like peas and maize. The machine has a
calibration system for setting seeding rates prior

to operating, which is very simple and accurate to
use.

Working Principle

The gearbox, pegged seed rollers and seeder
flaps are set to give the desired seed rate. The
disc(s) create the seed bed. Seed flows down the
flexible tubes between the seeder and the coulter
casting units, and drops into the prepared seed
bed.
