Cirrus 8004-2C Grand: a “three-in-one” seeder for large-scale farms

Amazone has expanded its flagship Cirrus Grand line with the Cirrus 8004-2C Grand, an 8-metre pneumatic drill whose hallmark is a 5,900-litre, three-compartment hopper. It can meter three different products in a 40 : 50 : 10 ratio in a single pass—say, wheat seed, mineral fertiliser, and micro-granulate. All components are placed in the same furrow via Single-Shoot technology, giving crops an even start.

Variable rates and row spacing

Besides the standard 16.6 cm spacing, the drill offers a narrow 12.5 cm option. Denser drilling closes the canopy faster, suppresses weeds, and may reduce herbicide load—particularly valuable in well-watered zones and on farms fighting resistant species.

Smart plus and AutoPoint: overlap-free accuracy

The Smart plus distribution block enables individual row shut-off and flexible tramline formation—symmetrical, asymmetrical, or custom—through the tractor’s ISOBUS terminal. The AutoPoint feature measures the real seed-to-coulter travel time and shifts row on/off timing at headlands, eliminating bald spots and overlaps.

Crushboard and self-contained hydraulics

For heavy, compacted soils, Amazone offers a front Crushboard with gauge wheels that levels the surface and prevents the wings from sinking. Farms whose tractors lack hydraulic capacity can order a PTO-driven hydraulic pack, while a heated air intake option raises airflow temperature by roughly 8 °C, stopping fertiliser or dressing dust from clinging in damp conditions.

Output from 280 hp upwards

With its 8-metre width, tight row spacing, and triple-product application, the Cirrus 8004-2C Grand can cover 60–70 ha per shift when paired with tractors from 280 hp. All the above options are likewise available for the 9-metre Cirrus 9004-2C Grand, giving contractors and large enterprises room to choose.
