    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Provides a test method for seed drills for sowing in lines, including seed drills attached to a basic machine. The test method permits the assessment of performance using reproducible tests so that comparable results in numerical or graphical form can be obtained. Factors affecting this are type of seed, the forward speed, the level of seed in the hopper, the application rate adjustment, the slope of the ground and the condition of the soil surface.
