Subsoiler with fertiliser application Digger Fert+ / Digger Fert+ Compact

 

Technology

Subsoiler with fertiliser application Digger Fert+ Compact

1 Zone of deep loosening and mixing of plant residues. Loosening depth 9.75"─19.5". The special shape of loosening chisels ensures excellent penetration even in heavily compacted soils with very low traction resistance. The chisels are in two rows. In extreme conditions, it is possible to work with only one row of chisels, thus reducing traction resistance.
2 Fertilizer storage zone. Granulated fertilizers are deposited into loosened strips in two horizons.
3 Ridge formation zone. Levelling discs also increase the effect of incorporating plant residues.
4 Clod crumbling and soil reconsolidation zone. Optimum soil reconsolidation ensures good infiltration and soil moisture rise.

Fertilizer placement

One part of fertilizer is placed under the surface in lower part of processed soil profile and the second part just under the surface + areal to the sides.

Technics

Subsoiler with fertiliser application Digger Fert+

  1. Monsun MF fertilizer bin with the capacity of 31.2 bu.
  2. Fertilizer distribution via pipeline to the distribution head.
  3. Massive shares installed in two rows for deep loosening at 9.75"─19.5". Fertilization with granulated fertilizers at two depth levels.
  4. Backfilling discs that catch clod impact and partially cut clods on the surface.
  5. Rear double spiked roller for crushing clods.

Digger Fert+ in Aggregation with Monsun MF Front Hopper

Digger Fert+ is based on the Digger Deep Cultivator supplied with a set for the application of granulated fertilizers for the root zone of the soil profile. Digger Fert+ loosens the subsoil layer, incorporates crop residue into the topsoil while applying fertilizer at two levels of the supply zone.

Digger Fert+ consists of:

  1. The Digger Deep Cultivator
  2. A fixed and flexible fertilizer pipeline from the front hopper located on the tractor
  3. A distribution head located in the central part of the machine
  4. A flexible fertilizer standpipe from the distribution head to the first and second row of the working parts of the Digger Fert+ deep cultivator

Monsun MF consists of:

  1. A front hopper with the capacity of 31.2 bu.
  2. The original and reliable Accord metering device with a range of application of up to 356,9 lb/ac, according to the type of the fertilizer
  3. An escapement wheel for the mechanical control of fertilizer metering
  4. A mechanically driven fan with power take-off

More information about Monsun MF at the product page.

Both machines, Digger Fert+ and Monsun MF, can be used in combination with any other machine. Digger Fert+ can also be used without additional fertilization as the basic Digger type. The application set for an additional installation in Digger machines is supplied upon request.

Chisels
The chisels include and application adaptor used for setting both depth levels for the application of the fertilizer.
Distributor
A fan with a hydraulic drive delivers fertilizer using air to all the chisels via the distribution head.

Digger Fert+ Compact

Digger Fert+ Compact is based on the Digger Deep Cultivator supplied with a large integrated hopper with a metering device. Digger Fert+ Compact loosens the subsoil layer in a single pass, incorporates crop residue into the topsoil while applying fertilizer at two levels of the supply zone.

The hopper has the capacity of 56.8 bu and a massive screen for the protection of the feeding screw that reliably dispenses the fertilizer into the Accord distributor. The feeding screw dispenses all types of fertilizers, even in humid conditions when the fertilizer may stay in the hopper. The fertilizer level can be easily checked through the inspection hole in the hopper. The entire metering device is stainless, with a high resistance to the effects of the fertilizer.
