ATICHISON-SEEDING WITH THE BEST

 The Aitchison range of specialist seed drills are widely accepted around the world as being premium machines and are noted for their accuracy, durability and performance in the field.  They have been developed over the past 35 years and encompass the latest in seeding techniques and are market leaders with several patented and unique features.  The sponge, seed feed mechanism, offers a coefficient of variation of 97% - 98% accuracy and can handle all seeds from the smallest brassicas’/turnips to broadbeans with sowing rates from as low as 1# pound and up to 350# pounds per acre.  Aitchison was the first seed drill in the world to use the revolutionary inverted T Baker boot.  The Nihard boot, with a tungsten tip, when used with a vibratory action tine creates a fine tilled seedbed as well as fracturing the soil allowing the developing seedling to better access soil nutrients.  Roots are pruned on competing plants while inverted T-slot traps humidity, stimulating germination, even in dry soil.  The actively prepared seedbed covers the seed consistently with approximately ¼” of fine, tilled soil.  Superb seed to soil contact and minimal resistance to both:  putting down roots and plants emergence, is achieved.  Seedbox agitators and dividers are standard to ensure even sowing and to arrest lateral seed movement.

 The Aitchison Seedmatic range of seed drills is the most versatile pasture rejuvenation drill on the market.  They are available as seed only or seed and fertilizer, linkage or trailed, tine with or without disc coulters and with disc openers.  Options include a 3^rd or small seeds box.  With 12, 16, 20 or 24 runs on a 3 rank stagger frame (ideal for trash clearance) at 6” row spacing, these will be the perfect machines available to suit individual needs.

 The Aitchison Prairie Dog seed only drill has been designed with U.S. seed specialists to sow all seed varieties including American native grasses and features a new vertical clamping tine and inverted T Baker boot, a deeper 3 rank stagger frame and an additional seedbox agitator.  It has a 7ft. sowing width with 14 tines and 6” row spacing.

 The Interseeder Professional series drill utilizes technology from both the Seedmatic and Prairie Dog.  The wider rank stagger and vertical clamping tines are designed for use in particularly harsh trash conditions.  Standard row spacing in 5 ¼”.  The double roller fertilizer system handles all fertilizers and can sow seeds at rates as low as 7 lbs. pre acre.

 The Aitchison A.M. No-Till drill offers unparalleled versatility to tackle every sowing condition, whether it be no-ill, direct trash seeding over stubble or into conventionally cultivated soil.  This drill is able to transfer its weight forward onto its sowing discs or back onto its cast press wheel by means of its unique electrohydraulic weight transfer system.  This ensures that the seeding depth is maintained no matter what the ground conditions and contour as each unit is separately sprung both front and back.
