I am looking for a cover crop seeder to fit to a 9 / 12 metre Kockerling Allrounder. It ideally wants to hold up to a tonne of seed. Considering an Accord DA with hyd fan, and electric metering. Any better suggestions? It really want to be capable of putting anything from mustard to beans through it.

Have a look at the bednar or Horsch partner rear tanks if you ever think you may want to use it with anything else avadex/ slug pellets. With a single outlet accord hopper you’ll be limited to relatively low rates before you run out of wind. Whereas with a pressurised hopper like those there’s more scope. Or look at a front tank like Clive has with his hybrid Co evolution depending on tractor.

I have a DL, don’t know what the difference is, and the hopper internally is 1510mm wide, and 960mm deep. I have 2 additional risers and it holds circa 500kg of an oat based cover crop
