Aitchison has claimed many ‘firsts’ thanks to the no-tillage technologies which have significantly helped farmers become more effective and efficient in the quest for healthy and productive soil.
The now famous Aitchison inverted T-boot opener has evolved from its original design in the early years of the company’s inception by founder Peter Aitchison in combination with Massey University. It is still regarded as a benchmark for seeding results in just about any seeding environment.
Today, our seed slot opener has evolved to dramatically reduce damage to soil structures and help reduce carbon emissions. This modern technology is used on the Grassfarmer® and Seedmatic® seed drills, as well as the smaller seed drills for orchards and vineyards.
