  • inter-row cultivator with simultaneous application of mineral fertilizers and automatic thrusting of the cultivator;
  • two John Deere tractors;
  • Kinze seeder with additional equipment (the total cost with all the connection works is about USD 200 thou.);
  • trailers, sunflower headers.

The purchase of the entire machinery complex will be carried out until July 2018.
