Full-surface movement leaves an optimum quality of work
The Cobra is not only ideal in achieving its main goal of mechanical weed control, it can also be used on the farm all year round. It comes into its own in shallow stubble cultivation but also shows its strengths in the second or third deeper tillage pass, catch crop destruction and in seedbed preparation.
The Cobra's full-surface cut effectively combats weeds and germinated volunteer cereals. As the cut is very shallow, the soil life in the underlying layers is not adversely affected. On the contrary: the cut organic matter is encouraged to rot and becomes a new source of food for earthworms and other soil-borne creatures.
The shallow cut also breaks the capillarity of the soil surface, while earthworm burrows and root holes in deeper layers are not destroyed. Breaking the surface capillarity reduces the evaporation of important soil moisture and protects the water balance.
Preserving capillarity low down the soil structure enables the soil to absorb water more quickly during rainfall and improves air exchange.
Protecting and promoting soil life, improving the soil's water balance and air exchange while effectively controlling weeds and preparing seedbeds. The Cobra from AMAZONE can do all this!
The benefits:
- Versatile machine for a wide range of soil tillage tasks
- Individually configurable
- Long lifespan thanks to the robust construction
1. Working width per share
2. Half working width of the rear shares
3. Large overlap of the front and rear share for full shallow surface disturbance
The Cobra can be equipped with, for instance, duckfoot shares with a width of 220 mm. A tine spacing of 13.3 cm ensures sufficient overlap of the shares and therefore full-surface cutting under all conditions.
