Hi
I'm looking into this DD thing. Currently running a Vaddy rapid box drill with fert. Did DD 100ac with this last autumn and it worked fairly well. All the straw was removed which I normally dont.
So, I guess the avatar puts the fert right next to the seed. This spring when drilling oats I put 120kg/ha n which amounts to about 600kg/ha total fert down the spout. (NPK 20 - 4 -11)
My question. What would be the maximum amount of fert you can drill with an avatar without damaging the seed?
Another question. It would be great to DD WW into spring oats chopped straw, but I read somewhere that this is not a good idea. Why?
