Rotary hoeing at different stages of development

■■■ = aggressive intensity possible, ■■ = normal intensity, ■ = gentle intensity, - = do not use

The rotary hoe has advantages in winter cereals especially in spring.

It performs better in damp conditions than the tine harrows
The highly effective action of breaking up incrustations ensures good aeration and drainage of the topsoil
In addition, mechanical cultivation promotes tillering
