Zero till drill

Zero till drill

Zero till drill is used to sow the next crop in standing crop residues without any field preparation. Zero till drill accomplishes four tasks such as clean a narrow strip over crop row, open the soil for seed insertion, place the seed and cover the seed. Major constrain associated with zero tillage in the weed infestation, both in season and off-season which needs to be controlled by sequential application of herbicides before swing (total killer/ pre-emergence) as well as after crop establishment (post emergence).
