Sowing or seedbed depth is an important agro-technological parameter that varies with
specific on-field soil and microclimatic conditions and depends on crop biology. There is a …

The article briefly describes the importance of furrowing depth stability for seed germination
and growth under precision seeding conditions. By analyzing the application status of …

Sowing depth is a critical factor in crop growth and is determined by both the soil conditions
and the force of the opener. The trend for the future is to control sowing depth based on soil …

An adequate and uniform seeding depth is crucial for the homogeneous development of a
crop, as it affects time of emergence and germination rate. The considerable depth …

The sowing depth stability and consistency of the no-tillage planter, particularly the high-
speed operation, are poor. A reason for this is that the structure and parameter selection of …

An even and correct depth placement of seeds is crucial for uniform crop germination and for
obtaining the desired agricultural yield. On state-of-the-art seed drills, the coulter down …

In order to solve the problem of poor uniformity and low depth stability in traditional tube
seeding (TTS), this paper proposes a no-tube seeding (NTS) method for wheat sowing. A …

High-speed precision planters are subject to high-speed (12~ 16 km/h) operation due to
terrain undulation caused by mechanical vibration and sensor measurement errors caused …

An electro-hydraulic profiling mechanism has been gradually applied to provide suitable
downforce for a no-till row unit and to ensure the consistency of the seed sowing depth. In …

This volume reviews key advances in precision agriculture technology and applications.
Chapters summarise developments in monitoring techniques, including proximal crop and …
