Optimum layout and the appropriate number of maize plants per area unit are the essential prerequisites for successful production. By maize sowing with precision seeders, significant savings in seed and working time are achieved, and proper and uniform seeds distribution of by depth, length, and width, enables better germination, sprouting, and higher yields. Understanding the importance of correct sowing becomes even more important considering the fact that mistakes made while sowing cannot be corrected later with other agrotechnical measures. The paper presents the test results and quality assessment of the Vaderstad Tempo T6 and Sola Prosem K8 maize seeders. The trial is aimed to determine the work of the mentioned seeders for wide-row sowing when sowing maize seeds in the production conditions of the observed area. The seeders worked in similar test conditions, and the corn sowing was done in the vicinity of Pancevo, in the Banatsko Novo Selo location. Tests and evaluation of the quality of seeders were performed according to ISO standards 7256/1 and 7256/2. The obtained results show that with the seeder type A-Vaderstad Tempo T6, the sowing of maize achieved better quality, bearing in mind that higher values of the QFI index (quality of feed index) were achieved, above 96%.
