Horsch’s new 6m Joker RT cultivator with a levelling board heads a Horsch line-up aimed at offering farmers maximum performance and flexibility.
The new levelling board will be available on the 6m wide Joker 6 RT and 8m wide 8 RT for next season. The board comprises a row of levelling paddles at the leading edge of the RT’s frame and adds greater flexibility to the machine, enabling it to be used directly on ploughed ground as well as stubble.
“We’re seeing a move to greater working widths but also a desire to do more operations with one machine, ideally in as few passes as possible,” Horsch UK general manager Steve Burcham said. “With seed, fertiliser and fuel prices rising, systems such as controlled traffic farming and our innovative singulation technology help reduce costs and improve crop performance.
“Capital and operating costs can be reduced further with highly flexible machines, like the Joker, Focus TD and Pronto, allowing farmers to operate efficiently in a wide range of conditions and scenarios with fewer machines.”
