Abstract of the project

Name of the priority direction: Energy and mechanical engineering. Name of the specialized scientific direction: Transport, agricultural, oil and gas and mining and metallurgical engineering. Type of research: applied research. Project start and end date: 10/18/2022 – 12/31/2024 Requested amount of grant funding: For the entire duration of the Project - 78,000 thousand tenge. By years, thousand tenge: 2022 - 12000; 2023 - 33000; 2024 - 33,000. The contribution of a private partner (co-investor) LLP "Experimental Farm of Oilseeds" - 23,400 thousand tenge, of which the cash contribution is 780 thousand tenge annually.

The idea of ​​the project: development of the design of the sowing complex (SC) with an increased working width due to the articulation of direct sowing seeders, as well as differentiated use of coulter groups, which ensures the simultaneous introduction of grain and dosed norms of mineral fertilizers into the soil. The design of the PC will be universal, modular, technically ensuring the sowing of small seeds and grain crops of continuous sowing, as well as row crops, both separately and simultaneously, which is a key condition for no-till technology.

The problem solved in the project is the equipment of agricultural enterprises with high-quality, multifunctional equipment for sowing and tillage, structurally capable of not only providing dosed piece sowing of seeds in one pass, but also simultaneously getting a portion of the necessary fertilizers to the sown seed.

The purpose of the project is to develop the design and create (up to implementation) of a universal sowing complex, which constructively allows the use of various seed sowing technologies with simultaneous differentiated application of mineral fertilizers and spraying of agricultural crops, which together improve the efficiency of its operation and reduce production costs.
