A seeding apparatus comprising a frame having a first section adapted to be attached to a toolbar for towing by a vehicle, and a second section comprising:
- a cutting unit and a press wheel assembly, the cutting unit and press wheel assembly being attached to the second section in a spaced apart relationship with respect to each other along the second section arranged in a tandem relationship with respect to each other such that the press wheel assembly is trailing the cutting unit, and
- a seeding unit for location adjacent the second section of the frame,
- the cutting unit comprising at least one cutting disc and the seeding unit comprising at least one seed boot and at least one seed boot mounting,
- the seed boot mounting comprising a bar configured to locate the seed boot adjacent a side surface of the cutting disc,
- wherein the bar comprises a proximal end attached to the first section of the frame of the seeding apparatus, and a distal end for attachment of the seed boot.
A cutting and seeding assembly having a cutting unit and a seeding unit, the cutting and seeding assembly being adapted to be mounted on a seeding apparatus comprising a frame having a first section adapted to receive the seeding unit and adapted to be attached to a toolbar for towing by a vehicle, and a second section adapted to receive the cutting unit and a press wheel assembly arranged in tandem arrangement and attached with respect to each other such that the press wheel assembly is trailing the cutting unit, and the seeding unit being adapted for location adjacent the second section of the frame,
- the cutting unit comprising a cutting disc adapted to be rotatably attached to the frame of the seeding apparatus and the seeding unit comprising a seed boot and a seed boot mounting,
- the seed boot mounting comprising a bar configured to locate the seed boot adjacent a side surface of the cutting disc,
- wherein the bar comprises a proximal end being adapted to be attached to the first section of the frame of the seeding apparatus, and a distal end for attachment of the seed boot.
