Very Nice, impressive machine !! Do they make one that instead of burying all the rocks, it draws the bigger ones up. Onto a belt, that goes to a following trailer.... To be run thru a rock crusher and used for paths, roads, concrete, and general construction (even bagged in chicken wire, for field fencing, boat docks/Jettys )...
I thought at first it was crushing the stone, but it's just burying them. I can tell you from experience that you'll have to do this every single year, as the stones will always rise to the surface.
i thought also about crushing but then i thought its impossible with such low power to crush so many rocks so fast and with no white dust. Burrying them is good if he bury them below 50 cm. 50 cm is good for most plants
Yes you would. However.. Utterly useless land, for anything including grazing, to a raised bed ready to plant in to in one pass.... with a smaller HP tractor a huge part of the world farms with....... That is amazing. Brilliant even.
Que gran maquina,una de las pocas que me gustan en la agricultura,no retirar las piedras sino triturarlas ademas con esa potencia,aumenta la eficiencia de la tierra a cultivar!....pero la pregunta es las tritura o solo las tapa?
Ça prend du courage de faire de l’agriculture avec autant de roche, moi dans 100 acres de terre j’ai moins de roche que dans un mètre carré de cette terre la . Et le pire c’est que débarquer du tracteur une fois par heure pour tasser une pierre et je chiale . Mais pour ce qui est de cette machine assez merveilleux
Так а куда камни деваются? Меняют местами с землёй и опускают на глубину 15см.ну если достаточно для корневой системы ростения тогда аппарат норм. А если нет то можно было бы придумать чтоб их собирать и высыпать на краю поля.
The machine appears to be raising the soil and then placing the rocks bellow the soil allowing for planting. Still...turning unusable land into usable land is a considerable achievement.
Yes a lovely bit of kit! I know that a BCS walk behind tractor has a smaller version for those wishing to lay a lawn! I think it's good for a 4 inch bed on top of (admittedly smaller) rocks.
It's basically throwing everything in the air, thru a grid. The soil can pass and burry the stones further back, while the stones get blocked and fall earlier back into the earth, so they end up deeper. This also works fine instead of tilling, it doesn't disturb the soil that much and gives a compact structure which rods away and give nutrients to the new seed and it can also except and store furtilizer and water, while tilling completely destroyed the kind of structures.
Within a few years rain will wash the light soil into the voids between the stones. & the process will need repeating . None the less this is very good system
N. Idaho prairie (the Purcell trench) has been picking rock for 150 years and the frost heaves keep pushing them up by the droves! This is very impressive but pulling them up from below frost level, crushing and mixing them back with the soil in real time in a 25’ wide swath… now there’s a challenge!
Great solution. Crushing the rocks effectively creates new soil for the future. The trick is cover the land right away with a cover crop or organic armor to protect again erosion and wind.
Is it actually crushing the rock as it goes or just digging it under? Towards the end you can see rocks under or were these what were deeper in the ground?
It's the best place for land development. I want to see what happened. Please upload the result in the video. Is it corn cultivation? Vineyard or olive field? I want to see the result. The water isn't draining. The problem is water. Do you dig a well?
What is this machine actually doing? Is it lifting the soil and burying the rocks? Or is it crushing the rocks to create a layer of soil? A script of some sort would be a big help.
Awesome, you might want to raise it an inch or figure out how to follow the ground, you might have problems with it strangling on the rocks otherwise as the dirt builds up. The discs on the edges are a nice touch, It gives a durable replaceable cutting edge you are going to need when dealing with rocky soil.
That is hands down one of the damnedest things I have ever seen. Rocks to soil in one pass. How often do you have to change the blades or angels or whatever makes it work?
what happen to the stones ?!.. are they bury deeper ? ..if so i'm disappointed ..they should be removed and used for building decorative walls at least .
How long can it work before gets destroyed? ...how many hectars ...its nice machine, would be nicer if it would drag bigger stones out and a side to remove it permanently not burry it under
