Best practice for using a disc harrow on different soil types

Optimal use of the disc harrow in agriculture

Using a disc harrow on different soil types requires consideration of specific soil conditions and the correct working technique. Learn best practices to help you maximise the potential of this reliable tool on your farm.

On light soils:

Light soils are characterised by rapid drainage and low water retention capacity. To use a disc harrow effectively on such soils, it is recommended to:

Setting a lower working depth to avoid loosening the soil too deeply and increasing soil erosion.
Checking soil moisture regularly and adjusting working depth according to weather conditions.
Carefully mixing plant residues into the soil to speed up decomposition and increase organic content.

On medium soils:

Medium soils are more varied in composition and structure than light soils. To get the best results with a disc harrow on medium soils, it is recommended to:

Work at greater depths than on light soils to ensure better loosening and aeration of the soil.
Checking soil moisture regularly and adjusting the working depth according to weather conditions.
Carefully mixing plant residues into the soil to accelerate their decomposition and increase the organic content.

On heavy soils:

Heavy soils are characterised by high density and difficult cultivation conditions. To use a disc harrow effectively on such soils, it is recommended to:

Set a greater working depth to ensure effective loosening of the soil and improve soil structure.
Use a slower ground speed to avoid excessive soil compression of the soil and to maintain an even soil distribution in the field.
Regularly clean the disc harrow of accumulated crop residues and soil to prevent clogging and loss of working efficiency.
