The GL 420 is a mounted, 4-row potato planter with a unique variety of options for almost every grower. The GRIMME professional planting element is the right choice for a very precise and even planting distance. Different setting options of the machine together with good calibrated seed enable a high planting speed. The machine design with large covering discs in front of running wheels enables easy pulling of the machine, pre-shapes the ridge and avoids soil compaction of loose soil by the running wheels. Several work steps can be combined with the cup planter GL 420. Integrating features such as active soil cultivation, application of granulates, furrow treatment agents and liquid tuber dressing, placement of the tuber, ridge building and erosion control, everything can be realised. The machine can be optionally equipped with solutions for the implementation of Clever Planting, Section Control and site-specific farming using application maps.
