Tape seeder
Discover the advantages of the highest possible sowing uniformity in the open field
Tape sowing is a unique concept that we developed in collaboration with SeQso. This sowing method allows you to achieve the highest possible sowing uniformity in the open field.
The Tape seeder is a new sowing machine that sown seeds on tape. The seeder automatically rolls up the tape, after which it can be rolled out on the field. Very high sowing quality levels were achieved during testing on trial fields.
The 6 unique advantages of Tape sowing
- Higher sowing speed, so more efficient
- Uniform seed depth and equal distance for maximum growth
- Reduced sensitivity of the sowing quality to weather conditions
- Preparation can be carried out long in advance during quieter periods
- One-off investment because of efficient utilisation of capital
- Sustainable option, sowing tape quickly decomposes in combination with biodegradable glue

Rijk Zwaan is one of the first seed breeder to start sowing using tape.
“We are very enthusiastic and happy with the current results from sowing on tape. The precision and uniformity we are achieving with tape on our international trial fields would absolutely not be achievable in the traditional manner.”
