Flagro Seed Drill Illustrated

Picture 1. Even with twice the seed quantity 400lbs barley/acre, there is good space between the grain plants when they become quite evenly distributed over the area. 1.9 square inches (9 square centimeters) for every grain plat is much more than they have in the plant groups after the present row seed drills. The white circles show the distribution of fertilizer. As illustrated on the image the roots will not have to grow more than maximally 18 millimeter (3/4") to reach the fertilizer and thus provide for optimal growth. This will happen shortly after seeding.

Picture 2. The image has been taken across a row seeded with the old seed drill. To really show the lack of space available for the roots, the earth has been carefully washed off, without rearranging the roots. You can see how the roots on the plants are crippled and left to grow together because of a lousy seed drill solution. After 300 years, it is maybe due time to let the plants have optimal grow-conditions.

Picture 3. This image has been taken lengthwise width the rows, and shows the rows positions in relation to one another. Here you can see how little of the soil the roots of the plants have the possibility to make use of after today’s seed drills.
