Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Lacombe Research Centre, has a requirement for the supply, delivery and off-loading of one (1) new and unused 8-row, no tillage, Cross-Slot Plot Seeder as per the make, model and mandatory technical specifications detailed in the Request for Proposal.
The goods must be delivered to: Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada Beaverlodge Research Farm One Research Road Beaverlodge, AB T0H 0C0
Delivery is requested on or before March 31, 2014.
No Substitute Justification: Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Lacombe Research Centre conducts multiple research activities involving rotating field plots into and out of perennial grass and legume seed crops, which encompasses several herbaceous species all producing large amounts of field trash residues. These research activities emulate the commercial field situation wherein forage seed producers continuously cope with the management of field trash residues and seek ways to improve rotating amongst perennial species or between perennial and annual crops.
The Cross-Slot Seeder is designed to seed into high levels of field crop residue to very shallow depths but not push residue into the seed row which reduces forage and annual crop establishment because the small seeds must be in direct contact with the soil. Seed slots created by the openers are horizontal. All other types of openers create seed slots which are vertical. The Cross Slot Seeder also provides consistent seeding depth using automated electronic-hydraulic control system for pressure on the openers that is not available on any other type of drill. The design of these openers ensures excellent stand establishment of forages and annual crops into any type of crop stubble while retaining 70-90% of crop residue at the soil surface. This is part of the work plan requirement for a collaborative project with Peace Region Forage Seed Association.
