Rotary hoes

Efficient

Certain weeds have developed resistances against herbicides, and chemicals will slow down crop development. Thus, an alternative is needed for effective weed control under different conditions. The rotary hoe, Helios, also works in case of resistance and can be used in pre-emergence status for blind weeding. It replaces and/or extends the options to react when conditions limit the application of chemical crop care.

Sustainable

Due to climate changes, farmers are often faced with draught resulting in hard soil surface with limited water reserve. Heavy rain falls, as the other weather extreme, result in slaking crusts. The supply of nutrients to the roots needs to be improved. By cracking the upper topsoil, the Helios promotes seed emergence and restores the water and air flow, stimulating physico-chemical reactions and soil life.

Precise

Selective mechanical weeding asks for precision. The even working depth adjusted to the height of crop emergence and sowing depth reduces the negative impact on the crops. A precise speed management can be set-up in order to work as aggressively as necessary, maximizing performance and output.

Versatile

Conditions in field vary. Individual farming concepts have been set up. The rotary hoe, Helios, adapts to all sorts of requirements and is a good partner for a wide range of applications in the spring and the autumn. Prepared for operation also in stony or mulch conditions without any risk of blockages. The rotary hoe, Helios, will carry out effective weeding in cereals and row crops, in a wide range of crop development.
