This allows simultaneous application of two different products \u2014 e.g., NPK base fertilizer from hopper 1 and potash or a micronutrient blend from hopper 2 \u2014 without pre-mixing and with independent rate control.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"background: #f7f7f7; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; border-radius: 6px; padding: 15px;\">\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #2a5c2a; margin-top: 0;\">Q2: How many hectares can the PAI-480-AR plant per day?<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #555; line-height: 1.7; margin-bottom: 0;\">At 4\u20138 km\/h with 4 rows at 75 cm spacing, the PAI-480-AR covers approximately 1.2\u20132.4 hectares per hour. On a 10-hour working day, that is 12\u201320+ hectares depending on conditions and refill frequency. The 4,000 kg seed hopper minimizes refill stops, keeping daily output high.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"background: #f7f7f7; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; border-radius: 6px; padding: 15px;\">\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #2a5c2a; margin-top: 0;\">Q3: Can the PAI-2100 run on a 75 hp tractor?<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #555; line-height: 1.7; margin-bottom: 0;\">Yes. The PAI-2100 is specifically designed for the compact tractor segment.
