I have managed to buy a used 6m seed and fert Sprinter. It has not been delivered with all of the seed rollers I need. Which roller do I need to sow OSR at 2-3 kg / ha. Pretty keen to get one, if we get some rain ( missed it all so far ) I may put 100 ha in next week.

There should be a list of all the rollers, their part numbers and the possible rates in your manual.
If not, pm me your email and I will send it over to you.

There are several sizes of the fluted part in the pic Wheatland posted above, the bigger ones won't drill the low rate you want to.
Will check my book later if you don't have a manual with the drill.
