DTS - Strip Till Technology
)
Bridge the gap to true conservation agriculture and zero-till with Sumo DTS strip-till technology. There are many advantages to strip-tillage; it is quick and large areas can be drilled in one pass, resulting in improvements in soil structure, drainage, soil aggregation and erosion. 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.
Targeted tillage leaves the vast majority of the soil between rows undisturbed, helping worm populations flourish with a rise in organic soil matter, both of which increase the fertility of the soil environment. Moisture is also locked into these areas and is ready for young crops to use.
Strip-tilling straight into stubble will reduce the need for deeper cultivations over time because as the soil structure improves, natural drainage, organic soil matter levels, weight carrying capacity and soil fertility improve, too.
