In modern crop production, energy-saving technologies play a key role, being one of the most promising directions. This requires the introduction of new-generation agricultural machines that guarantee high-quality operations, in particular, the sowing of small-seeded crops. New constructions of agricultural machinery are developed with an emphasis on multi-functionality, energy efficiency and resource conservation.
Existing sowing machines often do not meet the requirements of universal seeders, which prompts the search for new solutions. One of such promising directions is the development of seeding technological processes, which are based on the formation of a uniform flow of seeds, using sowing devices of the new generation.
The development of the construction and technological scheme of the seeding device for the selection seeder and the substantiation of its parameters is an urgent and strategically important task for the modern agricultural sector.
In addition to this, it is important to consider the requirements for adapting new technologies to changing field conditions and climatic factors. The development of technologies that reduce seed losses, reduce energy costs and increase sowing accuracy is an integral part of this process. In addition, modern selection planters must integrate the latest automation systems that allow monitoring of sowing parameters in real time, which helps to reduce the human factor and improve the accuracy of operations.
The use of advanced materials and innovative designs improves the durability and performance of sowing devices. Lightweight materials reduce energy consumption, while modular constructions simplify maintenance and adaptability. Incorporating renewable energy sources, like solar-powered systems, further supports energy-efficient and eco-friendly agricultural practices.

Technology, energy, agriculture transport AIC is a scholarly professional journal with a long-standing history and stable academic tradition, reflecting the evolution of engineering and technical sciences within the agro-industrial sector of Ukraine.
The journal was founded in 1997 under the title Bulletin of Vinnytsia State Agricultural Institute. According to the Resolution of the Presidium of the Higher Attestation Commission of Ukraine dated September 11, 1997, the publication obtained the status of a professional scientific journal, which enabled the publication of the main results of doctoral and candidate dissertations in technical sciences. From its inception, the journal positioned itself as an academic platform for addressing current issues of mechanization, electrification, and technical support of agricultural production. During 2001–2014, the journal was published under the title Proceedings of Vinnytsia National Agrarian University. Series: Technical Sciences (State Registration Certificate of Print Media KV No. 16644-5116 PR dated April 30, 2010). Throughout this period, a systematic approach to the selection and peer review of scientific manuscripts was established, the thematic scope of publications was expanded, and continuity of scientific directions as well as the development of sectoral engineering schools was ensured. Since 2015, the journal has been published under its current title, Technology, energy, agriculture transport AIC (State Registration Certificate No. 21906-11806 R dated March 12, 2016). The change of title reflected the expansion of the journal’s thematic coverage and its orientation toward interdisciplinary research in mechanical engineering, energy systems, electrical engineering, transport technologies, automation, and digital solutions for the agro-industrial complex.
