Agronomic Benefits:

  • Breaks Up Compaction
    Working down to 400mm (or more), the Subsoiler shatters pans caused by machinery traffic, restoring natural soil structure.
  • Improves Drainage & Reduces Waterlogging
    By opening vertical fissures, it improves water infiltration, prevents runoff, and reduces erosion risk.
  • Boosts Root Development
    With compaction removed, roots grow deeper for better access to nutrients and moisture — increasing yield potential and resilience.
  • Enhances Soil Biology
    Less smearing and greater aeration create the perfect conditions for worms, fungi, and microbes to thrive.
  • Supports Regenerative & No-Till Systems
    The Subsoiler provides low-disturbance restructuring, fitting seamlessly into regenerative, min-till, and controlled-traffic systems.

The Trusted Choice for Farmers

Whether you’re breaking up compacted stubble ground, managing cover crops, or preparing seedbeds, the Sumo Subsoiler delivers consistent, reliable performance that supports better soil health and long-term profitability.
