Key to success “In spring, I use the precision drill for maize sowing and in the summer for the sowing of oilseed rape. This is not only an additional pay- off of machine costs but it meets the often arid conditions we face in our area in the summer. Here it is of major importance to achieve a maximum seed-to-soil contact for an even germination. Our Optima V is fitted with GEOCONTROL. Thus we avoid any overlapping or missing of seeds - saving costs on surplus seeds and in addition facilitating any following crop care operations as well as harvesting. Our benefit is the increased yield due to evenly matured crops. The Optima V offers me an extra in flexibility and with the optimised ISOBUS controlled seed placement, we benefit from a profitable return on investment.”
