ARABLE TILLAGE SYSTEMS
YOUR KVERNELAND
INTELLIGENT FARMING SOLUTIONS
Choose the best farming solution for you and your land. Combine the highest possible yields with sustainability. This will start with the correct tillage. The choices you make depend on various factors and should match your specific circumstances, like soil structure, crop rotation, residue management, economic and ecological viabilities.
The choice is yours!
You must consider environmental and legal issues. From conventional methods to conservation tillage: the balance of operations at the right time has to be found to achieve high yields with the best soil condition (air, moisture, biological activity, etc.) with a minimum amount of energy, time and investment. For this, Kverneland offers a full range of intelligent farming solutions.
CONVENTIONAL TILLAGE
CONSERVATION TILLAGE
Conventional Tillage • Intensive method of cultivation
Mulch Tillage • Reduced intensity in terms of depth and frequency • More than 30% of residues are left on soil surface • Extended repose period of the soil • Cultivator and/or discs incorporate the crop residues within the top 10cm of soil for stable bearing soil • Full-width tillage - seedbed preparation and seeding in one pass • Protection against soil erosion; reduce soil loss by run-off and improve water storage capacity. • Improvement of soil moisture retention
Strip Tillage • Zonal strip loosening before or during seeding of up to 1/3 of the row width (Loibl, 2006). Up to 70% of the soil surface remains untouched • Strip-till combines the soil drying and warming benefits of conventional tillage with the soil-protecting advantages of no-till by disturbing only the area of the soil where the seeds are placed • Exact fertilising deposit • Soil protection against erosion and drought
Vertical Tillage / No-Till • Extensive method • Working soil vertically avoids additional horizontal layers or density changes • Increasing water infiltration, root development and nutrient take-up • Plants’ roots dictate the overall health of the plant, as they deliver nutrients and water throughout the season, contributing to a higher yield • A strong set of roots make plants more
• Complete soil inversion e.g. by a plough • Less than 15-30% crop residues left on soil surface • Seedbed preparation done by an active tool or special seedbed harrow • High phytosanitary effect by reduced pressure of weed and fungi diseases - fewer herbicides and fungicides needed • Better dry-off and faster increase of soil temperature for better nutrients absorbation
resistant to wind and drought. • Lower energy input required

EFFECTIVE SOWING
TO MAKE SOWING PERFECT
Placement The Monopill is excellent in precise seed placement. You can be sure that the sowing unit follows the ground contour perfectly and the coulter forms a clean and clear furrow to ensure best seed-to-soil contact. You can seed perfectly in line and in relation to each other but also synchronised over the complete working width. Intelligence You invest in the best equipment for sowing your crop. In return you want the best results and a significant increase in yields. With the Monopill you have everything under control with ISOBUS Technology and the Kverneland Precision SMART Farming solutions.
Versatility You want a precision drill that is versatile. Ready for various crops to sow shallow or deep. Ready to adjust to the various ways of tillage, standard or mulch seeding in different types of soils. Universal machines allow cost savings. Efficiency When the time is right, you want to sow immediately. The soil has to be prepared with care and the moment of sowing depends on the right conditions, like local weather. To be successful you need a precision drill that is reliable and effective.
With Monopill you can rely on a perfect execution.

SOWING HEART
PRECISE SINGULATION
The peripheral speed of the seed disc corresponds exactly to the forward speed of the machine. The counter-clockwise rotation of the disc opposite to the driving direction eliminates seed bounce or roll. A low drop height, precise singulation of all pelleted seeds and parallelogram guided sowing row ensuress best seed placement. WITH ZERO SPEED EFFECT
Lowest standard deviation = High seed placement + Best plant distribution
5
1
Specially moulded seed cells around the edge of the seed disc pick up individual pellets from the seed chamber ,with any surplus pellets falling back into the second seed chamber. With the rotation of the seed disc the seeds are transported downwards to the coulter. With a low dropping height the seeds fall in the furrow made by the seed coulter. The cell distance of the disc is the same as the seed distance in the furrow.
The seed falls down nearly vertically .
6
The peripheral speed of the seed disc matches exactly the forward working speed of the machine (zero speed effect). This eliminates seed bounce or roll in the furrow and enables high forward speeds to maximise the work rate. The opto-electronic sensor controls the correct allocation of seeds on the disc. In case of missing seeds, the sensor transfers a signal to the terminal. The opto-electronic sensor also serves as a low level sensor. The spring protected emptying flap at the lowest point of the seeding heart enables a complete and easy emtpying and cleaning of the seeding heart.T

With e-drive II each sowing unit is driven individually via an electric motor. All the data is entered and read by an ISOBUS conform terminal like Tellus 1200 / Tellus 700. The sowing distances are infinitely adjustable on the move. All the sowing units can be switched off individually. This solution saves seeds and money!
Another benefit of e-drive II comes into play with the individual tramline control with edge row effect. In conjunction with row widths of 45 or 50cm tractor wheels will damage too many plants. The seed rate e.g. in lines next to tramlines can be increased from 0 to 30 % (edge row effect). With e-drive II tramlines can be set up for every sprayer width. The e-drive II features complete electronic monitoring of all machine functions. This includes the seed monitoring by opto-electronic sensors as well as the steering of hydraulic functions such as the control of trackmarker arms and folding processes. Only the design of the seeding heart and hydraulic functions enable the steering of all these functions without external power supply. All functions can be used without an extra generator or accumulator.

OVERVIEW
Especially suited to large farms and contractors, the new XHD range has a lifetime up to 10 times the life * of the standard parts, keeping costs and downtime to a minimum. A cost effective alternative to handle the toughest conditions. * Based on average test conditions. Depending on soil type, moisture content, machine type, working speed, working depth, machine width and mounting position
Kverneland’s XHD parts are designed with the most extreme conditions in mind. Abrasive soils put significant stresses on earth wearing parts, resulting in fast wear and regular parts replacement. Thus increasing both costs and downtime. The Monopill mulch coulter monted is reinforced by embedding specially shaped tungsten carbide tiles on strategic places that are exposed to hard wearing.

SYNERGY EFFECTS
FOR HIGHER UTILISATION
The Monopill can also be used for sowing rape and chicory, this allows for the extended use of the machine, earning an improved pay back of the machine cost.
Precision drilling of rape has been used in seed multiplication for a number of years. Through increased use of hybrid rape varieties it is also becoming of interest to farms who wish to sow seeds in exact numbers per square metre, thus saving seed costs. Precision-drilled rape is generally sown in row widths of 45 or 50cm. This row distance allows the use of mechanical weeding machines to destroy e.g. former rape (line varieties) in hybrides. Down the spacing will vary depending on location and variety between 20 and 40 seeds/m 2 . Results from various testing facilities show that precision-drilled rape can achieve the same yields. Whilst at the same time saving seed quantity and overall costs.
Profitable use with rape and chicory.
Pelleted chicory can also be sown with the Monopill. The chicory is used for sugar extraction (Inulin) by the food industry. The row width is also 45cm. The seed is sown at a distance of 10cm in the rows and the sowing depth is extremely shallow at 0.5cm.

COST SAVING WITH PAYBACK
The more precisely and evenly a seed is sown, the easier it is to work and harvest, and the greater the possible yield.
iM CALCULATOR APP - free to download After filling in the required data, the calculator clearly shows what you can save in terms of money. With GPS it is possible to accurately seed, spread and spray without any overlap. The iM Calculator app calculates the cost saving by using those GPS functionalities. The amount of seeds saved depends on the size and shape of the field and may amount to more than 5%. The iM Calculator app for tablets is free to download from the App Store or Google Play. Please find the online calculator on our homepage: http://imcalculator.kvernelandgroup.com/#/ Seeding with GPS and GEOCONTROL ® in combination with a Monopill e-drive II is a major step towards precision and cost saving. These machines are all equipped with ISOBUS technology which, with the help of the Tellus 1200 / Tellus 700 terminal, can be easily controlled. Each electric driven seeding element, in combination with GPS and GEOCONTROL ® , is automatically switched on or off in exactly the right place, ensuring there is no overlap with any row that has already been sown. This is especially handy in triangular fields, on curved or irregular shaped headlands. You can also continue seeding at night since the switching on/off of the seed elements is completely reliable.

GEOSEED ®
PATENTED 2-D SEED PLACEMENT
GEOSEED ® increases the yields of row crops and ensures maximum efficiency. Seeds are placed perfectly in line and in relation to each other.
GEOSEED is the precise synchronization of seed placement across the full working width of the machine. This ensures that seeds are distributed evenly, achieving an optimal pattern - either parallel or diamond-shaped across the soil surface. The positive effects of this technology are far-reaching. By enhancing seed distribution, GEOSEED maximizes the efficient use of key resources such as nutrients, water, and sunlight, fostering optimal plant growth. Additionally, this uniform planting pattern helps reduce the risks of wind and water erosion, as the even distribution of plants improves soil structure and coverage, leading to better water retention and minimizing soil degradation.

GEOSEED ® - EFFICIENT HARVESTING
WITH LESS SOIL ATTACHMENT Experiences from practising experts have shown that the right positioning of the beet in diamond pattern makes harvesting smoother with higher harvesting performance results. In particular the uniform loading of the harvester and the lower soil attachment allows higher speed driving. In 2016 the consultancy initiative "Mont Blanc" found out in an experiment that the sugar beet yield in cultivation with GEOSEED® in diamond pattern is about 1t/ha higher than in comparison to classical precision sowing. In addition, the beet in diamond pattern can be harvested with less soil attachment. This is not only an advantage when determining the effective yield or sugar profit, but also increases the harvesting efficiency and transportability and enables the use of sugar beet in biogas plants or in cattle feed.

STRIP-TILL
ROW CULTURE AFTER STRIP-TILL
STRIPEWISE SOIL PREPARATION
The soil is cultivated only within the stripes where the crop is intended to grow. De- pending on the intended row width, up to 70% of the soil surface remains untouched. This technology not only protects the soil against erosion and drying but also reduces the tillage costs.
Residue-free, deeply loosened seedbed ensures high emergence and deep root formation
By dividing the field into cultivated and uncultivated areas, Strip-Till combines the advantages of direct seeding and seeding after plough. The solid soil and the layer of residues between the rows prevent erosion and support the storage of water. Within the row that has been cultivated by the Kultistrip, a fine crumbled seedbed is prepared, offering optimum conditions for the young plant. In addition to the cultivation of the stripes the Kultistrip can implement a fertiliser layer in the soil at the same time, thus providing the plant with optimum nutrients. The plants can develop faster and the soil is covered earlier with vegetation due to an earlier row closure. Finally the weed development is suppressed. By using GEOCONTROL ® there are no overlaps. Costs for fertiliser, seeds and chemicals are saved as well. GPS control of the tractor is advised for the Strip-Till. The implementation of the RTK sig- nal (+/-2cm) guarantees high precision and is therefore recommended. The working width of the Stip-Till implement should correspond to the working width of the precision seed drill or have its double width at maximum.

SEEDBED PREPARATION
THE RIGHT SEEDBED
FOR MAXIMUM FIELD EMERGENCE
An optimal seedbed is the basis for high field emergence and thus for high yields. It requires a fine crumbled and uniform reconsolidated seedbed to allow an optimal seed coverage. At the same time best seed-to-soil contact is achieved when the seed is connected with the capillary water from deeper soil layers.
An optimal suger beet seedbed
Ideally seedbed preparation should not be deeper than the sowing depth. Structural weaknesses of the soil must be improved in many places by deeper processing, but in wet conditions and heavier soils this would be fatal. The goal is to avoid as many passes as possible to maintain soil aggregates and to ensure uniform reconsolidation. Active equipment such as Kverneland power harrows and passive machines such as seedbed harrows (TLD and TLG see next page) or disc harrows (Qualidisc Pro and Qualidisc Farmer), which intervene less in the soil structure, can be used here. If there is a risk of field mice, the seed should not be sown too flat and must be re-consolidated directly. The occurrence of slugs can be reduced with good re-compaction to destroy cavities. A higher proportion of fine earth stops slugs finding places to hide.
