improved aeration giving nature a head start
- Better retention of fertiliser or liquid manure with reduced run oFf and waTER contamination
- Improved water penetration and retention
- More oxygen to improve aerobic microbe activity which in turn improves natural fertility, enhances root development and produces more grass
- More palatable grass, sweetened by the increased oxygenation of the soil
Why choose the Disk Aerator?
As ground dries in the Spring, it can shrink and create nature cracks in the soil. Disk aerating allows the cracks to go deeper giving this process a head start and providing real benefits.
Benefits
- Improved aeration
- Reduced compaction
- Improves drainage
- Reduced run-off continuous slit much superior
- Superior performance in stony conditions as each disk is individual sprung
- Can inject bio stimulants directly into root structure
- Reduces build-up of thatch
- Root pruning action generates more vigour in the grass
- More cost effective to run that a slitter/spiker roller
Features
- Modular build chassis 2.5m/3m allows machine to be updated at any stage.
- Transport width 2.34m/2.94m – the two outriggers can be removed to reduce transport to the field by simply removing two bolts
- Galvanised for long service life
- Sprung disks for improved performance
- 8/10 blade modular chassis
- Integrated weight frame
Options
- Rear linkage allows grass harrowing
- Hydraulic front harrow to level surface or mole hills
- Seed box
- Distribution system to place bio-stimulants beside the disk
The Journey
We produced our first disk aerators twenty years ago. These were produced for customers with sports turf and sports surfaces. The continuous slit produced neater finishes, faster and allowed more oxygen into the surface than conventional spiking machines. The root pruning helped stimulate grass growth and reductions in thatch were achieved.
Ten years ago, we started with a new concept for agriculture in an individual spring-loaded disk with angled blades. The agricultural Disk Aerator was born.
Environmental Credentials
At a time when there is much talk about contamination of our waterways by nutrients running off the fields a simple process of disk aeration across the slope of the land will all but eliminate nutrient leaching as the nutrients will flow into the soil. This in turn allows the farmer to utilise this expensive resource and grow more grass.
The continuous slit when allied to a distribution system can be used to inject bio-stimulants and nutrient mixes directly into the soil. These products can improve the soil biology creating more fertility and boosting production through regenerative practices.
