At the front of its Agritechnica stand, Güttler showed a prototype system with seed tubes fixed to the rear of the tine. Having gauged interest in the concept, it has now made its way to the field. We caught up with the 6.0m version

For many years, Güttler has offered the GreenMaster harrow with a seeder that broadcasts seed from a series of spreader plates behind the tines. The downside to broadcasting is that, if the grass is wet or you’re working in a denser stand, some of the seed will not actually reach the ground where it can germinate.
