N2  - A simple, single disc, pitting and seeding machine was developed for revegetation operations on degraded arid rangelands. This machine creates a shallow pit in which seeds or medic burrs are dropped and rainwater is trappedThe length or depth of a pit can be altered by changing the disc shape. The machine consists of a seed box and a single modified plough disc, articulated behind a two- wheeled trailer. The disc directly activates the seed or burr dispenser. The machine operates behind a car. The low-cost machine could be an attractive option for rangeland revegetation programmes on privately-run Australian pastoral properties or rangelands of develop- ing countries.
