KEY BENEFITS
Your stubble management system can have a dramatic impact on crop performance, your operational capacity and ultimately a positive impact on the financial performance of your business.
Faster residue decomposition
Faster residue decomposition
Mixing of mulch and soils brings the micro-organisms responsible for breaking down the residue into contact with the mulch far earlier than would otherwise occur thus speeding up decomposition.
Improved soil structure
Improved soil structure
Incorporating mulch with soils increase organic matter levels for improved soil structure.
Reduced pesticides
Reduced pesticides
Mulching stubble reduces the chances of pests and diseases harbouring over winter within the stocks to affect the following crop.
Improved fertiliser utilisation
Improved fertiliser utilisation
Improved soil structure also enables the crop to make better use of costly fertilizers.
Reduced fuel consumption
Reduced fuel consumption
Increasing stubble height reduces the volume of crop passing through the combine which dramatically reduces fuel consumption.
Reduced working hours
Reduced working hours
The combine’s capacity is greatly increased in terms of performance and operational times due to the reduced volume.
Reduced down time
Reduced down time
Cutting at higher stubble heights reduce combine down-time and risk of stone damage.
Reduced harvest cost
Reduced harvest cost
Reduced working hours, improved combine output and reduced fuel consumption improve harvest efficiencies.
