The KOSMA is a light yet robust precision planter for use with light tractors. The KOSMA can plant on tilled fields or on minimum-tilled land at speeds of 4 to 8 km/h.
The planter's design strikes a harmonious balance between weight and planting speed, achieved by moving the centre of gravity closer to the tractor, which improves tractor stability during work and transport. A KOSMA row unit weighs 95 kg, with the option of spring loading up to 120 kg.
The KOSMA is a light, economical planter designed for farms with up to 500 ha of row crops. Its light weight and high output make the KOSMA a sound purchase in terms of price/quality ratio.
Available in different hitching versions: mounted with 2x260 l or 1x950 l fertiliser hoppers, and trailed with a large 1,350 l fertiliser hopper, with a wide range of options.

Flexible, precise settings: 20 gears to obtain the required seed spacing, more than 30 types of seed disc for different crops. Infinitely variable fertiliser rate adjustment. Easy depth adjustment in 5 mm steps
