Väderstad has recently launched a new high-speed precision planter, the Tempo L 24. The company explained that this is the largest high-speed precision planter for sugar beet and oilseed rape to date.

The Tempo L 24 has 24 row units and 450 to 508mm row spacings. Each seed hopper holds 25 litres and the machine can be equipped for fertiliser metering with a 5,000 litre fertiliser hopper.

The planter has patented seed metering using PowerShoot technology, delivering high-speed precision planting.

Tempo L 24 went into production in November 2018, with new machines being available for the autumn in 2019.
