The Väderstad Rapid 800 S is a pneumatic seed drill manufactured by Väderstad, a leading Swedish producer of precision tillage and seeding equipment. Seed drills are used to plant seeds at controlled depths and spacing across prepared ground, and are essential machines in large-scale arable farming for achieving uniform crop establishment and optimal yields.

Seed metering is managed through hydraulic control with mechanical depth adjustment. The drill is equipped with a mechanical following harrow to consolidate the seedbed after sowing. A 57 mm towing coupling is fitted for connection to a suitable tractor. Pneumatic seed distribution is used throughout.
