Erth Engineering has just launched its MKII version of its popular Agriseeder direct drill.
The Northern Irish-based firm said that after extensive testing in Ireland and around the world, a number of tweaks have been made to the drill.
A new hydraulically powered front harrow can now be mounted on the drill chassis.
Erth Engineering claims this eliminates the need for a front-mounted harrow in situations where high levels of trash need to be removed.
Depending on requirements, a range of levelling paddles, harrow tines or breaker paddles can be equipped. The firm says even with these features, it remains a minimum disturbance drill.

Meanwhile, a double-element harrow can be fitted to the rear of the drill. These come with either straight or sweeping tines.
Erth says the sweeping tines have been added to bring more tines into the slot in dry, light loam soils - especially in cereal applications for better coverage of the seed.
A rear double element harrow can be fitted to the rear of the drill.
The updated drill now features two seed hopper options, either a 400l hopper (suitable for rape, clover, grass etc) or a new 750l hopper (for cereals).
The 750l hopper features a modular design, which Erth says has been designed in-house to ensure the operator can see the seed distribution from the cab.
Panbuster updates
The Panbuster range now features new minimum disturbance grass points and shins. Erth says these have been developed for harder wearing, with both the point and shin independently replaceable.
The firm has also launched a new V-form panbuster for use in arable and grassland applications.
Despite keeping the original auto-disc opener and auto reset design, Erth says it will allow better clearance of trash. It comes with a range of rollers including steel, shark-fin, coil and rubber.
