Subject field(s)
  • Seeding and Planting Equipment
  • Mechanical Construction
CONT

Automatic or mechanical depth controls (...) are particularly useful on a discer when seeding. They help to ensure a uniform seed depth in varying soil conditions, and also allow a narrower width of cut to be used, even in soft soil, thereby obtaining a better weed kill.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Matériel de plantation et de semis
  • Construction mécanique
CONT

Des dispositifs automatiques ou mécaniques de réglage de la profondeur sont particulièrement utiles pour les travaux de semis. Ils permettent d'assurer un semis à une profondeur constante même si on rencontre des différences de conditions du sol. Même en sol meuble, une largeur moindre de travail assure une meilleure coupe des mauvaises herbes.
