Targeted reconsolidation – for better plant growth and higher yields!
Reconsolidation in strips
By reconsolidating in strips, it is possible to create an optimum soil condition which adapts to the current weather conditions and thus ensures the conditions for rapid and uniform plant emergence. This means that reconsolidation in strips is an insurance for timely cultivation. In addition, the homogeneous and well reconsolidated strip has no cleat marks. This is a decisive advantage compared to rollers with full-surface profiles, as this has an effect on the smooth running of the sowing coulters in particular.
Water always where it should be
Reconsolidating in strips just in the actual seeding zone allows the seed to be connected to the ground water found deeper without bringing the full capillary effect up to the soil surface. This ensures that the seedling is supplied with water (1) without any evaporation on the surface (2). The soil is not dried out unnecessarily. This ensures good germination, even under dry conditions.
In wet conditions, however, the unconsolidated strips between the seed rows allow water to infiltrate down deeper (3). This enables an adequate gaseous exchange (4) – vital oxygen can reach the young roots, even as they grow deeper into the soil. The best conditions for good germination and successful seedling development of the crops.
