Vaxio Combination Cultivator
Move from Trio to true min-till with the Sumo Vaxio.
High-speed and versatile cultivator which combines both surface cultivation and loosening to depth with levelling and consolidation all in one pass. Farming in this way is proven to lower input costs, create a soil environment well-suited to strong yields, and protects the environment from carbon loss.
This versatile tool is capable of seedbed creation, soil moisture retention, soil compaction alleviation, and high output capabilities. All encompassed in a minimal maintenance design.
Hydraulically-adjustable with scalloped discs that break up the surface and providing better soil penetration. The discs are spaced at 230mm approx. this gives maximum soil disturbance with good trash clearance. The disc sets chop any surface trash/cover crop and incorporate it into the soil to add to the organic matter.
Staggered rows of spring-loaded tines offer good mixing of crop residues, while breaking up compaction and aerating in stubble fields. The 310mm wide points create fissures and pores for water retention, further improving seed germination and root development. Narrower chisel points can be used to work in ploughing to break down clods, compaction and smear created by the plough.
A row of hydraulically adjustable levelling paddles allows a small amount of soil to be carried with the machine. These enable the machine to fill in and level furrows to create a seedbed. The paddles can be lifted out of work completely to allow trash to flow through when working on stubbles.
The patented Multipacka shoulders create a trough in which surface water can move into and also help drive the packer eliminating smears on the soil surface. The design increases soil’s resistance to wind and water erosion as the finish reduces the amount of soil particles that are carried away by the wind. It was specifically developed to reduce soil moisture loss and co2 produced in tillage work.
