I saw this interesting new KUHN Vari-Master L Smart Plough at work at Willemsens arable farms in Biddinghuizen in the Netherlands. It is still a 0 series model of only two of which are tested this year.
Raising and lowering each plough body individually eliminates the V or Z -shaped patterns at the headland – left when the plough is lowered and raised coming in and out of work each time. This makes it difficult to plough the headland “neatly”. This not only reduces the number of times the tractor passes over the headland, thereby reducing soil compaction, but also ensures all surface trash at the furrow/headland interface is buried effectively.
The control of each individual body is based on GPS positioning data.
Hopefully next year I can make a more comprehensive video ;)
Thanks for watching!
