Strip-Till technology: effective farming with care for the soil

Modern agricultural production requires not only high yields, but also a thrifty approach to resources and soil.

One of the most effective solutions today is Strip-Till technology (strip tillage) - an approach that combines the advantages of traditional and zero tillage.

What is Strip-Till?

Strip-Till is the cultivation of only narrow strips in which seeds are sown, while the inter-rows remain untouched and covered with stubble.

This technology allows you to:

• retain moisture,

• minimise erosion,

• reduce fuel and time costs,

• improve conditions for root system development.

Features of the Strip-Till strip cultivator

1️. Soil cultivation only in the sowing row

The depth and width of the strip are set precisely, providing an ideal environment for crop growth.

2️. Crop safety

The soil in the row is loosened and aerated, the roots receive more air, and moisture is retained longer.

3️. Advantages of direct sowing

The inter-rows remain covered with stubble, which reduces erosion and retains the fertile soil layer.

4️. Significant cost reduction

The use of Strip-Till reduces fuel consumption by 40-60% and reduces the number of passes of machinery in the field.

5️. Lower CO₂ emissions

By reducing the number of tillage operations, carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere are reduced by 7% to 35%.

6️. Local vertical fertiliser application

Fertilisers are applied directly to the seed strip, which increases crop nutrition efficiency by 20-30%.

7️. Reduction in cultivation time

One pass with Strip-Till replaces several operations - pre-sowing cultivation, fertiliser application and row preparation for sowing.

The advantages of Strip-Till in figures

• Fuel savings: up to 60%

• Soil moisture retention: +10-20%

• Yield increase: +5-15%

• Reduction in cultivation costs: up to 30%

• Lower CO₂ emissions: up to 35%

Strip-Till is a technology that combines economic efficiency and environmental care.

It helps farmers work smarter, conserve natural resources and achieve stable yields.
