Abstract
A device for distributing solid particles in a field, including elements for producing the solid particles from at least two solid, particulate compositions; the elements for producing including at least two containers for storing each of the solid, particulate compositions, wherein the elements for producing are capable of producing solid particles with different ratios of the at least two solid, particulate compositions; and elements for delivering the solid particles to the field. The present disclosure also provides a method for distributing solid, fertilizer particles to a field with the device.
Claims15
A device for continuously producing and distributing solid particles in a field, comprising:
- a means for producing the solid particles from at least two solid, particulate compositions each having a different chemical composition, the means for producing comprising a first container for storing a first one of the solid, particulate compositions, a second container for storing a second one of the solid, particulate compositions, a device for heating at least a portion of the first one of the solid, particulate compositions from the first container to form a melt and mixing at least a portion of the second one of the solid, particulate compositions from the second container with the melt to form a mixed composition, and a 3D printer for producing solid particles from the mixed composition with different ratios of the at least two solid, particulate compositions;
- and
- a means for delivering the solid particles to the field.
