Now we might not know the implement below and its importance in your production or farming business
Again let’s hit a few points.
What is it?: It is a Ripper, some call it a chisel Plough.
What does it do?: It deeply rips the soil off and apart.
Why is it so important?:
1. When we use our Mouldboard Ploughs they leave a hard pan underneath making it difficult for roots to pe*****te the soil for water and other trace elements deeper in the soil hence this guy here breaks that hard pen open and shaked
2. As the ripper goes through the soil it vibrates and shake the big clods in between thus giving airspace which are perfect for roots development and easy maneuvering deep into the soil
3. The ripper helps in making the feel like a sponge, thus making it a water bank deeper in the field, thus preventing runoff’s which have complications of eroding vital nutrients and creating dongas.
These water banks/excess water then gets recollected by the deep running roots when the rains have vanished hence this implements saves you from heavy strikes of drought by 70%
4. It rips up and out all of the unwanted roots and tubers which might compete with your crop
5. Remember during heavy rains there could be damping off and other water logging problems which suffocate the roots if u have shallow ploughed soils but with the deeply ripped soils water just sips in continuously creating a good drainage to the upper roots leaving the plant to perform better
So this tool increases the performance of your crop by 60% hence it’s a must have 🤝
