Therefore, disc ridgers are machines that, combined with the use of complementary machines, such as ploughs and furrowers, allow optimal soil preparation for sowing and healthy crop growth.
Ridging technique consists in moving the soil from the inter-row to the base of the plant, to cover at least its base.
This procedure is mainly used in potato cultivation, and in horticulture.
Apart form protecting the plant, it provides also further benefits:
The optimal time to carry out the ridging process is when the sowing soil is neither too wet nor too dry, i.e. mainly during the intermediate seasons.
Ridging in autumn allows the plant to defend itself against the cold and bad weather.
Ridging in spring, on the other hand, aims to increase the quality and productivity of the crop.
Given the importance of this procedure, ridgers are used to carry it out properly, avoiding damage to the crop and over several rows simultaneously.
