Precautions before using the wheat precision planter
Environmental Requirements for Precise Sowing
1. Well-prepared, fine soil is essential for high-yield wheat fields that have optimal conditions in terms of soil quality, fertilization, and irrigation. The field must be deeply plowed, thoroughly leveled, compacted, and properly prepared to ensure even seed distribution and good germination.
2. High-quality seeds are crucial for successful sowing. Selecting wheat varieties with high yield potential, strong tillering ability, and high individual plant productivity is important. Before sowing, seeds should be cleaned using a suitable long-hole sieve to remove damaged or underdeveloped grains, ensuring full, healthy seeds with a high germination rate. Additionally, seeds should be treated with appropriate fungicides or insecticides to protect against pests and diseases.
3. Choosing the right sowing date is vital. Early sowing is recommended for fine-seeded wheat, as it allows the crop to rely on tillering to increase population density. This should be based on the solar terms and local temperature conditions. For winter wheat, the ideal sowing temperature range is between 15°C and 18°C, ensuring favorable conditions for seed germination and early growth.
Troubleshooting to Ensure Sowing Quality
Common issues during sowing and their possible causes include:
1. Missing seeds: This can occur due to blockage at the seed outlet, clogging of the seed tube, improper engagement of the seed sorting clutch, or weak spring force or broken springs in the row spacing reducer box.
2. The press wheel not turning smoothly, dull blade on the clay scraper, or excessive clearance between the scraper and the ground; also, the scraper may collide with the anti-slip gear, or the soil moisture content may be too high, affecting seed placement and soil compaction.
3. If the drive shaft becomes bent during operation, the seeder may become unbalanced, or the unilateral limit chain of the tractor's suspension mechanism may be too short, leading to uneven seed distribution or mechanical failure.
Important Safety Precautions During Operation
1. Never engage power before the seeder is properly positioned, and avoid suddenly lowering the seeder to prevent damage to both the tractor and the seeder’s drive components.
2. Stop the machine when reversing or turning to avoid accidents and maintain control over the equipment.
3. Do not allow anyone to stand on the seeder while it is in operation to prevent falling accidents and ensure operator safety.
4. Always turn off the engine before replacing any parts to avoid injury from moving machinery or accidental activation.
Hot Topic: The "People's Republic of China Food Safety Law" will officially come into effect on June 1st, marking an important step in enhancing food safety standards nationwide.
This law emphasizes the importance of maintaining high-quality agricultural practices, including precise sowing techniques, to ensure the production of safe and nutritious food for consumers. It underscores the need for farmers and agricultural workers to follow strict guidelines to support sustainable and responsible farming methods.
