Although new to the UK, these high specification implements have been available throughout the rest of Europe and beyond for a number of years and, as such, are well proven in the field.
Having been built for over 30 years, Gaspardo direct drills are well proven in the field. The Gigante is a disc-coultered no-till seeder which is available in working widths of up to 6m and a choice of either 15cm or 18cm row spacings. Twin hoppers can be used to supply both seed and fertiliser to the coulters which employ disc openers ahead of tapered coulter-boots. Alongside this run rubber or steel gauge wheels, which work in conjunction with the unit’s coil spring linkage, to maintain an even seeding depth. Finally, angled closing wheels firm things up and ensure decent seed-to-soil contact.
