The new Vredo DZ Agri Air overseeder from JC Machinery made its debut at the Livestock Event and was celebrated by being awarded a certificate for reaching the finals in the RABDF Machinery and Equipment Awards.
Exhibitors were invited to enter the award, presented by the Royal Association of British Dairy Farmers, designed to recognise the economic importance of their products to the livestock farming sector.
“This is the first time the Vredo Agri Air Overseeder has been shown and we are very happy that the judges have seen fit to highlight its potential benefits to the British farmer.”
The criteria for entering a product included the economic advantages to the farmer, running costs, servicing requirements, safety features, energy usage, potential market and list price. RABDF's chief executive, Nick Everington says: "As organiser of Livestock Event, we are pleased to continue this award to recognise those exhibitors who excel in technical innovation and demonstrate real cost benefits to livestock producers."
The new Vredo DZ Agri Air series of overseeders is specifically designed for small areas which may have slopes or undulating terrain.
The DZ A Agri features a pneumatic hopper for accurate seed calibration.
They are all equipped with the famous proven Dual-Disc System which delivers a germination rate of 96%. The pairs of discs, set 7.5cms apart, guide seed into a V-shaped slit in to the sward, whatever the soil conditions – clay, peat, loam or sand, wet or dry.
“We are sure it will be an enormous success in the UK over the coming years.” added John “This is just the start, we will be taking The Agri Air Series to AgriScot in Edinburgh in November, and hope to generate as much if not more interest there.”
