Soil tillage equipment

Seller's country: Netherlands: Gelderland, South Holland

Soil tillage equipment refers to a range of machines and farm implements used to prepare the soil for planting by manipulating its structure and composition.

Essentially, the goal of using this type of equipment is to prepare the soil to make it more suitable for crop seed, resulting in better yields.

Types of Soil Tillage Equipment

The types can vary depending on the specific needs of a particular field or crop but generally fall into three categories:

• Primary tillage equipment is used to break up large clods of soil and mix in organic matter such as compost or manure. This type of equipment is typically heavy and designed to operate at depths of 6 to 36 inches. Examples of primary tillage equipment include plows, chisels, and subsoilers, such as the Lemken Koralle 3/340.
• Secondary tillage equipment is used after primary tillage to prepare the soil surface for planting, which might involve soil pulverization to prepare seedbeds, controlling weeds, and refining soil tilth. This equipment is typically lighter and is designed to operate at shallower soil depths than primary tillage machines. Examples of secondary tillage equipment include harrows, such as the Kuhn HR 304 D, cultivators, such as the Kuhn PROLANDER 6000, and power tillers.
• Planting equipment is used to create furrows, deposit seeds, and cover them with soil. Examples of planting equipment include seed drills, planters, and transplanters.

Leading tillage equipment manufacturers include names like:

• John Deere
• AGCO
• CNH Industrial
• And Kuhn
