[QUOTE="PSQ, post: 1750132, member: 11374"] The DD threads usually degenerate into 'Disc [U][I]v[/I][/U] Tine'. From what you've put above, surely the debate should be Variable Rate [I][U]v[/U][/I] Land Wheel. If DD is constrained by soil texture and moisture, or more to the point, % seed mortality, then achieving successful establishment should be the prime objective; the degree of disturbance is a secondary consideration. [Insert moronic 'reductio ad absurdum' replies about Suffolk coulters here] Ergo, it doesn't really matter which drill you use, as long as you have the ability to forecast expected % establishment and increase seed rates accordingly, i.e. VR Seed. Land wheel metering systems are ideal for soils without variability, but we don't have much in the way of Polder or Chernozem in the UK, so why do many Direct Drills use them? And for those with electronic drives, who is actually using theirs for VRS? [/QUOTE]
