Väderstad Tempo row shut off saves fertiliser

Row shut off saves fertiliser

Together with the seed metering, the fertiliser metering has individual row shut off. This maintains the correct application even on irregular fields.

The fertiliser is metered through short hoses which improves the reaction time.

Individual row shut off provides equal conditions for the plant which leads to an even crop emergence and reduces fertiliser costs.
