Do you have a farm, but you don't know what device will effectively compact the soil, break up clods and, above all, reduce the porosity of the soil? He will solve your problems cultivation roller, which is used for rolling operations, which are a very important stage in the process of shaping the soil for sowing.
What is a cultivation roller?
cultivation roller is a special agricultural machine that works individually or cooperates with a tractor, aggregate and plow. The tool is used in every cultivation period, from post-harvest cultivation to rolling after sowing.

What is rolling?
Rolling is a process carried out using cultivation rollers, which significantly affects the quality of crops and subsequent harvest. Its main purpose is to accelerate the settling of the soil between plowing and sowing, because after cultivation the soil becomes very dry. Therefore, rolling helps retain water in the soil, improves its structure, reduces erosion, and improves seed-to-ground contact. The rolling procedure can be carried out on arable fields, peat soils and grasslands.
Types of tillage rollers
Currently, there is a wide selection of models on the market cultivation rollers. Due to the use and soil conditions on the farm, tillage embankments can be divided into several types, including:
-
smooth roller - used only for leveling agricultural land used for growing grass (meadows and pastures) or other green crops,
-
ring roller – designed to crush fragments found in heavy soil, as well as to ensure roughness on soils at risk of water erosion. It is worth knowing that it is characterized by considerable diversity in terms of the shape and methods of making rings,
-
spike roller – suitable for seasoning the soil after plowing. Its design allows it to be combined with a plow,
-
string roller – a tool that is most often combined with other tillage machines. It is generally used to compact the higher part of the plot.
