FIELD: agriculture; machine building.SUBSTANCE: invention relates a planter, which uses individual seed meter motor drives at each row unit. Motor controllers control each seed meter drive motor. Each individual row seed meter can be individually started, stopped and operated at a unique rate. Prior to planting, meters can be operated to fill meters and ensure that meters are primed and ready to start dropping seed as soon as planter begins operation to plant seed. When a seed delivery system is used with each meter to move seed from meter to soil, the delivery system is also primed with seed before operation of planter by starting its motor, controlled by control system.EFFECT: invention allows to reduce loss of seeds during their loading and sowing.6 cl, 6 dwg |
