Ridging tools
Simply "bury" the weeds
Earthing up the plant rows is the simplest form of mechanical weed control in the crop row. Small weeds are covered by soil and die. Weed seeds that have not yet germinated are deprived of the light needed to germinate. There is a suitable ridging tool for every hoe and for all conditions. The shallow ridgers mounted on a share shaft are recommended for earthing up rows of cereals. Whereas, for earthing up crops with larger row widths, such as sunflowers or maize, the ridging discs are the preferred option .
Shallow ridger
- Shallow earthing up
- Soil flowing from the hoe blades is channelled into the plant row
- Attached to the RapidoClip share shaft
- Double-sided shallow ridger for row widths up to 37.5 cm
- Single-sided shallow ridger for row widths from 37.5 cm
Ridging discs
- Shallow to intensive earthing up
- Rigidly attached to the KPP parallelogram or the parallelogram of the finger hoe
- Row widths from 37.5 cm
- Adjustable working angle of the ridging discs
- For stony soils or soils with crop residues
Share ridger
- Earthing up in ridge crops
- Intensive earthing up in row crops
- Row spacings from 62 to 80 cm
- Mounted in the KPP parallelogram
