Bullock Tillage has developed a front mounted version of its pneumatic seeder. Called the T17 it is offered in four working widths from 3.0m to 6.0 with manual folding booms. Hopper capacities are 250, 400, 600 and 800-litres.
With a starting price of £2,800, the seeders come with three metering rotors for different seed and either a standard control box or it can be plugged into an ISObus socket and operated from the tractor terminal. The fan is electrically powered with the optional hydraulic unit recommended for the 5.0m and 6.0m T17.
Nigel Bullock points out that an advantage of the new model is that it can be lowered for easier hopper filling and quickly removed when not needed.
