A seeding implement assembly including a tyne (21, 105) for cutting an incision through the ground with minimal soil disturbance at the ground surface and a seed discharge means for mounting at the rear of the tyne. The tyne has a deep ripping point (41) disposed at its base to deeply rip the soil below the ground surface allowing for fertiliser to be deposited deeply into the ground. A furrowing means (14, 103) is provided behind the tyne (21, 105) for opening up the ground so as to form a main furrow in which seed is deposited at a level above the bottom of the incision. A pair of soil deflecting means (15) are disposed either side and rearwardly of the tyne (21, 105) for forming a seed furrow on each side face of the main furrow. A method of seeding comprising depositing seed in furrows formed on each face of a main furrow disposed above a line of fertiliser is also disclosed. |
