The finalists

With the new Solitair MF pneumatic seed drill, LEMKEN is launching the foldable counterpart to the Solitair MR, which is designed to meet very high standards of precision, flexibility, and user-friendliness. According to LEMKEN, the active seedbed preparation and the rear-mounted seed hopper make the Solitair MF “unique in this working width segment.” 

Developed for powerful operation in narrow sowing windows, the machine combines active seedbed preparation with a rear-mounted 2,000-liter seed hopper – for excellent weight distribution and high efficiency. The Solitair MF scores points with two electrically driven metering units for precise half-width switching as standard. The corrosion-resistant, fertilizer-compatible metering units can be changed without tools – even when the hopper is full. 

The maintenance-free OptiDisc coulter with parallelogram-guided double disc coulters ensures precise placement even under difficult conditions.
