Sowing and establishment
- It is important to always cover all the seeds in the sowing, to avoid that they when they are on the surface of the soil do not dehydrate depending on the high temperatures. Use of the compactor roller that improves the quality of the sowing according to the uniform acceleration of the germination of the seeds.
- For excessively sandy soils we recommend the use of the compactor roller before and after planting.
