AS500 Air Seeder
Gullwing, contour following and trash clearance are maintained, and complimented with features such as heavy duty tyres and 2-point linkage drawbar. Legendary Taege ‘S’ tynes provide performance rivalling larger European machinery.
This machine follows ground contours with offset depth wheels, allowing for flex while maintaining stability and eliminating the formation of ground corrugations.
Experience all that a Taege Air Seeder has to offer. With tall towers, to drill correctly especially on the uphill side of the steepest terrain.

All Taege Air Seeders come with:
Adjustable harrows: These are an option that gives great results by covering the seed planted and ensuring good seed to soil contact.
Very flexible ‘S’ Tynes: The ‘S’ Tynes are set on a patented angle combined with the Taege 3-piece boots and hard wearing narrow tungsten faced tips – its a vastly different set up to other tyne drills.
Computerized sponge metering system: This system is standard on all models and provides fast, easy and accurate calibration without the risk of seed damage.
Strong, fully welded, hot dipped galvanized frame and brackets: Ensuring the longevity of your investment.
“The machine is cost effective in the respect that it has a significantly lower cost of ownership than its disc drill counterparts in both initial outlay and running costs per ha.
This drill has a considerable amount of technology.
In my opinion, in some areas this is actually better than larger, heavier and more expensive European drills. Given that it’s kiwi-made and they are doing a bloody good job of it, with exciting things to come in the future, why wouldn’t you support them?”
