Both models can be combined with a Pneumatic Seeder PS 120 M1 - PS 300 M1 as well as with a Multi-Metering System MDP 100 M1 - harrowing and seeding in one working pass! Possible fields of application are vegetable gardening (especially bedding) and special crop cultivation.
Functional Principle
The tines penetrate the soil while harrowing to a maximum depth of 2-3 cm in order to break up and crumble the top soil crust. This ensures a better soil aeration and the capillarity is interrupted. The main focus of harrowing is on the reduction of weeds. While the tines move over the soil, bad herbs in the shoot or germination stage will be covered with soil or pulled out and discarded on top of the soil. There, they wither and die off. This means that approximately 90 % of the weed germs in the stock are decimated.
