Precision farming aims to improve crop performance and environmental quality. It is de fi ned as the application of technologies and principles to manage spatial and temporal variability associated with all aspects of agricultural production. Multiple passes of machines for ploughed or ploughless farming lead to soil degradation, excessive compaction, quick mineralisation of organic matter and have a destructive impact on biological life in the soil. Strong compaction interferes with the air-water equilibrium, cutting off easily accessible oxygen and nutrients from the roots of cultivated plants. This top-of-the-range machine has been designed to assure tillage, fertilisation and sowing in one pass directly over a stubble fi eld.
