When we were carrying out our 2020 cultivator drill group test, five of the eight models had a section control function, so we took the opportunity to see how good they were. Something went awry with the Lemken results, so we agreed to head back to the field with the Compact Solitair … to have another go

During last year’s drill section control test, the Lemken Compact Solitair 9/600KH switched sections much too early at the headland, regardless of whether it was angled or straight. With the cover crop mix, the four-section Lemken drill returned the least favourable results of the five machines tested.
