Proceed V 24 in the field

Proceed V 24

Exact precision for each seed

Proceed V 24 is a precision seed drill, available with 24 rows and a working width of 6 metres. It operates with either 225 mm or 250 mm row spacing and has a 2,200-litre seed hopper. To enable in-row fertiliser distribution, Proceed V 24 can be combined with the front hopper FH 2200.

One machine. Many possibilities.

The precision seed drill Proceed V can place even the smallest seed at the perfect depth with millimetre precision. The result is a significant improvement in yield potential, while drastically lowering the seed rate.

Winter wheat planted by Proceed has increased biomass and shoots per plant compared to a modern seed drill

Ten weeks after seeding, field trials of winter wheat at a seed rate of 150 seeds/m² show a 102% increase in plant biomass, a 72% increase in root biomass and 62% more shoots per plant compared to a modern seed drill.

A new category of seed establishment

Previously, there has been a clear distinction between grain seed drills and precision planters for row crops. Proceed changes this. By merging both technologies into one, it brings the precision of planters to grain crops, while also maintaining the ability to plant at wider row distances. This results in unprecedented crop quality paired with great versatility in farming practices. Proceed sets a new standard in crop establishment.

Measuring stick that measures the distance between seeds in a furrow

The first to optimise yield potential in cereals

Proceed delivers exact depth precision, singulated in-row precision and perfect distribution across the working width. To ensure each seed has the same conditions, the row units act individually to optimise the seedbed and growth conditions for each seed. To maximise precision, Proceed is equipped with row-by-row shut-off and control.

“I am very impressed by the very homogeneous fields I see here, as a result of the accurate depth placement. I believe this will make the crop protection easy over the coming vegetation period.”

The Proceed row unit

The improvements in precision offered by Proceed, compared to a standard seed drill, can largely be attributed to the accuracy of its row units.

Precision seeding through positive air pressure

The Proceed seed meter uses positive air pressure to ensure each individual seed finds its place on the rotating seed discs, one by one. To guarantee top performance, three speed-independent singulators at the top of the seed meter remove any excess seeds.

When the seed reaches the seed tube, the air pressure is cut off, allowing the seed to be accurately placed into the seed tube. The air pressure then resumes control and shoots the seed down to the soil. Since all seeds experience the exact same transport time from the seed meter to the seed furrow, precision is ensured. At Väderstad, we call this PowerShoot technology.

Highest precision in all dimensions

Every component of Proceed is built to ensure the exact same start for all seeds. The even seed placement results in a crop that matures at an even rate and is more likely to reach its full yield potential.

Perfectly even crop stand

Proceed delivers a perfectly even crop stand, which is key to reaching full yield potential. Most inputs and actions during the crop year are targeted at specific development stages to ensure maximum efficiency. An even population can be fertilised at the right time, receive crop protection or fungicide at the optimal development stage, and be harvested at peak maturity.

Automatic levelling for excellent results

The Proceed V 24 detects its angle in two directions and automatically adjusts to maintain precise operation. For lateral adjustment, crucial in hilly conditions, the machine monitors the position of the parallel linkages of the outer row units and adjusts downforce to ensure even results.

In the driving direction, it actively senses the angle between its two sets of row units. If there’s a deviation, it adjusts the downforce on the pre-consolidation wheels to keep all row units parallel to the ground.

Product concept

Zone 1 – Pre-consolidation

In front of each row unit, there is a pre-consolidation wheel. The pre-consolidation wheels eliminate irregularities and ensure even consolidation for each individual row unit. This ensures that each seed is placed under the same conditions, guaranteeing even seed depth, optimal moisture access, and uniform emergence.

Zone 2 – Row cleaning (optional)

Row cleaners are an optional feature on Proceed. Their task is to remove crop residues, clods, and stones. The demand for row cleaners is significantly higher when operating in no-till conditions or in fields with a large amount of residue.

Floating row cleaners (option)

Zone 3 – Seed placement

Thanks to PowerShoot technology, the Proceed seed meter ensures precise placement of each seed. This level of accuracy is crucial for maximising yield.

In-row fertiliser kit

Zone 4 – Closing

When the seed is planted, the closing wheel closes the seed slot and ensures optimal conditions for germination. Depending on farming requirements, the interface also allows for several industry-standard third-party closing wheel solutions.

Narrow closing wheel 25mm

Wide closing wheel 50mm

Treaded closing wheel 50mm

Pointed closing wheel

Spiked closing wheel

ProDrain add-on for closing wheel
