THE ROOTBOOT
The 'Rootboot' is an innovative boot attachment, designed for attachment behind any tine-based tillage tool utilizing a knife point for soil penetration, enables the distribution of paired seed rows spaced about 75mm apart.
This boot facilitates the placement of fertilizer and liquid products (such as liquid fertilizer containing trace elements, fungicides, etc.) between these seed rows, ensuring a soil buffer zone separates the seeds and fertilizer.
The positioning of the fertilizer and liquid fertilizer is slightly deeper than the seed bed, by around 15mm. A key feature of this design is the fixed spatial relationship between the outlets for seeds, solid fertilizer, and liquid fertilizer, guaranteeing consistent placement of these elements.
The uniqueness of this system lies in the arrangement of the seed, solid fertilizer, and liquid fertilizer outlets, with the fertilizer tube positioned behind the seed tube. The design of the seed outlets is streamlined to allow soil to smoothly cover the seeds, encapsulating them effectively.
INNOVATIVE DESIGN FOR A MODERN CLIMATE
STREAMLINED
Streamined seed outlets allows soil to flow over the top, encapsulating seed with no seed bounce, ensuring faster sowing speeds.
The Rootboot features an 8x16x50mm Tungsten Tile for extra life, protecting the unit against chipping and damage, while the streamlined design negates the requirement for trash guards.
UNIQUELY DESIGNED
The Rootboots unique design means the unit is bolted to the tynes, removing the need for pins or clips, ensuring the unit stays secured throughout operation.
The 5x12x50mm Tungsten Tiles on the seed wings also protect the wings from chipping and damage, while situating the fertilizer tube behind the seed tube means that the unit is protected against blockages while ensuring correct fertilizer placement.
ROBUST CONSTRUCTION
The seed outlets on the Rooboot are compact and closer to the knife point, maintaining sowing depth when the tyne breaks out.
Additionally, the Tungsten overlay positioned on the under-side of the main center plate provides an added layer of wear protection.
