13 Optional equipment
13.1 Micro-granular compound facility
With the micro-granular compound facility additional granulate, e.g. pesticides or
fertiliser, is placed.
Depending on equipment and setting, the granulate can be placed with the grains
into the seed furrow, or on the surface.
The system consists of a pressure hopper, a metering unit with metering auger and
an electric drive.
