Reconsolidation
For the right soil porosity
LEMKEN pays a lot of attention to optimal reconsolidation: with different packer types or following rollers of the machines for seedbed preparation and stubble cultivation. .
Why reconsolidation?
When ploughing, the soil is loosened, crumbled and at the same time its porosity volume is increased. This allows air and heat to enter the soil and interrupts the soil capillaries. Because of tight crop rotations, there is usually no time for gradual settling and natural fermentation of the soil. In addition, drying out of the ploughed soil must be prevented. On the other hand, capillary action must be restored as quickly as possible for the seed sub-bed.
