As known, seed drills are the most complex agricultural machines in terms of the performed technological process since they include a number of sequentially or concurrent operations. The modern crop farming technologies shall include practices that improve soil fertility through the application of organic and mineral fertilizers. Sustainable crop production is carried out with environmentally friendly and economically competitive farming methods. The object of this paper is to determine the main agrotechnical parameters of universal seed-fertilizer stubble drill SZS-4U. The research methodology has involved determination of the main agrotechnical parameters of the seeder. Based on the research results it was found that the uneven seeding of winter and spring wheat at two speed modes was 2,98% and 3,04%, for spring barley is was 2,70% and 3,00%, mineral fertilizers – 7,57% and 7,69%. With the optimum depth of the openers, the actual depth of seeds placement of spring wheat was 56,5 and 48,9 mm, winter wheat – 44,5 and 43,9 mm, spring barley – 48,0 and 44,3 mm, these data meets a given depth of seeding. After SZS-4U has passed there’s been retained 68,12 – 72,38 percent (%) of stubble on unprepared or minimally prepared grounds, and these values meet agrotechnical requirements which stipulate at least 65 ± 10%. Thus, we can conclude that the universal seed-fertilizer stubble drill SZS-4U meets all agrotechnical requirements and stipulated indicators in terms of sowing winter wheat, spring barley, and spring wheat with simultaneous fertilization.
