METHOD OF SOWING Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC A01C7/00 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: method of sowing consists in leveling of microrelief of planted belt and in forming base surface and furrows with compaction of bottom by means of soil impressing. Impressing of soil is performed with a roller-furrower. After that seed sowing, covering and packing are carried out. Forming of a base surface and sowing furrows is performed simultaneously by means of packing at a different depth with the difference equal to the sowing depth. On sides of each furrow there are left strips of loose soil with the width equal to half width of the furrow and the height not less, than the sowing depth. Covering of seeds is performed by means of undercutting strips of loose soil of the base surface with simultaneous shearing them from both sides into the furrows. After that finishing packing to the level of the base surface is carried out.

EFFECT: upgraded accuracy of sowing depth and quality of seeds covering.
