Read MoreKverneland Rotago F, quality power harrows for refining the soil
The foldable rotary harrows “Rotago F” by Kverneland can operate independently for soil refinement or in combination with the “Cb-F” seed bars and the “f-drill” front-mounted tank Efficient Soil Preparation for Precision Seeding Soil refinement is essential for creating optimal conditions for seed drills. A well-leveled and uniform seedbed ensures precise seed placement in terms of depth and row spacing. There are two primary approaches to achieving this: passive mechanical tillage using trailed implements or rotary harrows, which provide a more intense clod-crushing action. While trailed equipment may struggle in…

Read MoreKuhn Optimer, ideal cultivators for any soil cultivation
Gone are the days when cereal farmers resorted to the practice of “debbio,” or stubble burning. This method was already documented in the first century B.C. by the Roman writer Publius Vergilius Maro, better known as Virgil, the author of the epic poem “Aeneid.” He attributed to debbio the ability to transfer “mysterious forces” to the soil and dissolve potential damage in plant tissues—concepts that, in a way, were correct since fire destroys fungal spores of pathogens. Stringent legislative limits Today, this practice is strictly regulated by law, with violations…
