The Väderstad Rapid A600S WE is a seed drill manufactured by Väderstad, a recognised Swedish builder of precision seeding and cultivation machinery for arable farming. This machine is designed to sow seeds at controlled rates across multiple rows while incorporating supporting functions for seedbed preparation and crop establishment.
This 2011 model is equipped with Twin Fenix metering, a dual-channel seed-metering system that enables independent rate control and reduces seed damage through gentler handling. The drill features three rows of staggered disc coulters, which cut and separate soil as seeds are deposited, and is fitted with a following harrow to consolidate the seedbed after sowing. A hydraulic fan supports the metering system, while a radar speed sensor allows ground-speed-dependent rate adjustment during operation. The machine incorporates a hydraulic system disc for integrated soil engagement and is supplied with pre-emergence markers and bout markers to aid field navigation and prevent overlap between passes.
Wheel eradicators are fitted to control volunteer growth and surface debris ahead of drilling. The machine has an operational history spanning 8,420 hectares. It is currently located in the United Kingdom and presented in used condition. The purchase price is $31,110.
