The Väderstad Rapid 400 is a precision seed drill manufactured by Väderstad, a Swedish company recognised for building advanced seeding and soil preparation equipment. This machine is designed for accurate, efficient crop establishment across medium to large field scales, distributing seed at controlled depths and spacing while preparing the seedbed in a single pass.
This 2018 model is configured as the Rapid 400S variant with a working width of 4.00 metres, making it suitable for operations across diverse farm sizes. The seed hopper holds 3,100 litres, permitting extended working periods between refills. The machine is set to a standard row spacing of 12.5 centimetres and operates at speeds between 10 and 14 kilometres per hour, allowing operators to balance productivity with placement precision.
The drill is equipped with two rows of disc cultivators for soil preparation ahead of seed placement, paired with rubber soil compactors to firm the seedbed after sowing. Markers are fitted to aid overlap guidance during successive passes, and lighting is integrated for extended or low-visibility working conditions. The machine requires a tractor of not less than 180 horsepower to operate effectively.
This example has completed approximately 2,110 hectares of work since manufacture, reflecting moderate to substantial field use. It is located in Bulgaria and is offered at $38,350.
