1. The work of the “mechanical DIGGING MACHINE” is the same as “old hand
digging”: penetration, tear, throwing.
2. The DIGGING MACHINE does not cause the formation of a smooth, compacted and impermeable layer as with ploughing. It leaves the ground broken,
friable and permeable.
3. Fertility of soil is improved with the DIGGING MACHINE because organic or chemical fertilizer is more fully mixed in the soil; because it encourages the decomposition of harvest residuals; because it assures better oxygenation of all the worked soil; because it improves the population of micro-organisms, indispensable to the transformation of organic substances.
4. The physical-chemical structure of the soil is improved with the DIGGING MACHINE so that yields increase.
5. The motion of the components of the DIGGING MACHINE giving penetration, tear, throwing allows working in the most difficult soils and in the most arduous conditions. Its use is possible in very wet soils. Without smearing, the DIGGING MACHINE is the only implement that allows working wet soil - even when water covers the surface. It is also ideal for working hard, dry soils to form ideal size clods much smaller than those left by ploughing, so allowing easier following soil preparation ready for sowing.
