Summary
The SUMO Deep Tillage Seeder (DTS) drill is based on a concept known as ‘strip till drilling’, a method
of only loosening and preparing a band of soil where the seed is to be placed and leaving the soil in-
between rows undisturbed, and therefore not working ground unnecessarily.
The DTS, a uniquely versatile drill capable of direct drilling, min-till drilling and conventional plough
based drilling. Designed and manufactured in Britain, the DTS features an auger (Sumo patent name
“Orga”) metering unit capable of dispensing wide range of seeds and fertilisers and widely varying rates.
DTS features:
•
Based on 33.3cm row spacing.
•
Individually mounted seeding units that articulate with ground contours and are governed by a
constant flow pressured hydraulic system.
•
Leading opener disc for cutting through trash
•
Single tungsten edged deep loosening auto-reset leg capable of a maximum working depth of
250mm
•
Wide band (approx. 150mm) or narrow (approx. 25mm) row seed opener boots place seed in the
loosened strip
•
Covering discs channel loosened soil over the seed
•
Gel filled press wheels firm the soil around the seed and also govern the sowing depth of the
coulters
