MINE REVEGETATION

When contemplating how to revegetate rehabilitated land there are several important things to consider.

  • How do we accurately meter this range of native seeds when they vary so much in size, shape and density

  • Should the seeds be dropped on the ground and hope for the best

  • How do we seed while making contoured furrows at the same time

  • Is it possible to bury the seed in the topsoil at a prescribed depth

  • How do we accurately seed difficult sites where the slopes can be 20 degrees

  • How do we best take advantage of follow up rain to maximise germination

There is one chance to get revegetation right and Ellworx can provide the products and advice to achieve this.

MINE SEEDERS

These do the metering of seed and fertiliser and use air assistance to ensure blockage free delivery to the ground. Our Mine Seeders can be self-powered or operate from the dozer hydraulics depending on requirements. Designed to go anywhere the dozer goes and operate while ripping at depth if necessary.

Seeding Implement

Metering and distributing seed and fertiliser is the first step. Just as critical is placing the seed in an ideal condition to germinate. The seeder undercarriage produces uniform contour furrows and places seed at a prescribed depth below the topsoil
