The Horsch Finer 7 SL post-harvest tillage cultivator
In late May, company Horsch (opens in a new tab) unveiled new implements designed for mechanical weeding. The line-up includes an updated Horsch Finer SL post-harvest tillage cultivator, a modified Horsch Transformer VF row-crop cultivator, and the Horsch Cura tine-harrow range.
The Horsch Finer SL has a row of S-type tines (70×12 mm), spaced 15 cm apart, and is available with a working width of 6 or 7 m. The implement can be fitted with a Rollflex-type roller, a twin roller, or a rear harrow. According to the manufacturer, the unit can scalp the soil, prepare a seedbed, and sow in moist conditions.
The Horsch Transformer 6 VF row-crop cultivator
To fight weeds more effectively, the Horsch Transformer VF cultivator was modified. The implement is now 9 m long and fitted with a new distribution head, allowing mineral fertilizer to be applied locally. Both cultivators come equipped with Horsch I-Manager software.
The Horsch Cura 12 ST tine harrow
Horsch has also expanded its Horsch Cura ST tine-harrow range. Alongside the 12-metre model, the brand is announcing the arrival of a 15-metre version, the Horsch Cura 15 ST. The company assures that by autumn 2021, buyers will also be able to get versions with a working width of 6 and 9 m, and a 24-metre trailed harrow, which is currently being tested.
