With the aim of evaluating technically three sowing machines for no-tillage farming of corn, an experiment was established in the area of the Agricultural Engineering of the UFLA, under Typic Distroferric Red Latosol clayey (LVdf), by using the three following sowing machines: S1 - Semeato SHM 11/13; S2 - John Deere RT 907 and e S3 - John Deere RT 907, with different furrow opening systems for fertilizer placement, moving at three different speeds of V1 (1,38 m.s-1), V2 (1,8 m.s-1) e V3 (2,22 m.s-1). The variables quantified were: skidding, average power on the draw bar, average power per sowing mechanism, per hour and specific fuel consumption and theoretical field capacity. A statistical design in randomized blocks with split plot distribuition was adopted. From the results obtained, it was possible to conclude that, as regard to the operational system of the tractor-sowing assembly present significant differences occurred among the three assemblies for the power on the bar and fuel consumption. As for skidding and power, no significant difference occurred between assemblies 1 and 2, differing from assembly 3. For the parameters techniques-operational evaluated of the better performance was observed for S1V3 (Semeato SHM 11/13 e 2,22 m.s-1).
