Manual Seeders For All Seeds
An incredibly versatile distribution
Initially designed by EBRA for large scales crops, the mechanical metering unit with inclined discs is simple (just one disc to change from one crop to another), precise (one grain at the time with a precision rate of about 80% for carrots size 1.6 mm- 1.8 mm) and incredibly versatile: from very small seeds (parsley ...) to beans, large beans and even small bulbils EBRA offers you a really professional distribution on its manual seeders!
Manual Seeders For All Seeds
A truly professional manual seeder
Not only is its distribution the same as for the mounted seed drills, but the whole design of the SJ seed drill combines quality and ease of use. High-quality and durable materials (steel and aluminum for the most part), a robust and practical design, and careful manufacturing down to the smallest detail - everything in the SJ manual seeder reflects our desire to offer a tool that has the same quality of work as that normally found on a mouunted seeders. Because we believe that, whatever the surface they cultivate, all market gardeners deserve professional equipment!
Manual Seeders For All Seeds
Easy and comfortable to handle
The EBRA seed drill has an ideal profile and weight: it stays in line even in cloddy or stony soil but remains easy to push and stable thanks to its wide wheels. The positioning of the handlebar allows both a good guidance of the seeder and easy turns at the end of the row by tilting the seeder on the rear wheel. In addition, the aluminium handlebar can be moved -on Dynamic and Expert models- to walk beside the seed line. In short, the SJ seeder is designed for practical use, which you will appreciate every day.
