The part of the chronological range of cropping systems of current interest includes Mini-Till, No-Till and Strip-Till, the latter being now in a state of development and widespread distribution. Through the research into the evolution of agriculture, it has been established that Strip-Till will be replaced by a Mix-Cropp system, its main feature being the dominance of mixed crops. Rot-Mix will replace Mix-Cropp. The former is based on the use of crop rotations of mixed crops. By analyzing modern agricultural production and the trends of its development, it has been established that mixed sowing technologies are already in demand. In particular, it is necessary to develop a system of machines for mixed sowing of soybeans with corn for fodder purposes. As a result of cooperation between the University and JSC ‘Elvorti’, a prototype of the Vega-8w Profi seeder was manufactured, which implements the possibility of independent sowing of seeds of two crops in one row. The purpose of the work is field testing of a prototype of the Vega-8w Profi seeder when performing mixed sowing of forage crops of corn and soybeans to obtain an increase in the yield and quality of the resulting products, in forage production – primarily to improve the quality of forage. The tests showed that the total yield of silage mass of soybeans with corn, grown together, is guaranteed to be higher than in the case of separate growing of the crops. The quality of the experimental silage, for a number of indicators, is also higher than that of silage without soybeans, or silage obtained by adding soybeans grown separately. The productivity of cattle in terms of both meat and milk in the case of feeding the animals on the experimental silage also exceeded the control. Today, the work on improving the system of machines and technologies for co-cultivation of soybeans with corn for fodder purposes as the technology of the upcoming farming system Mix-Cropp continues.
