It&#8217;s a &#8220;bed maker&#8221; for compacted soils, a situation quite common for most farmers.  It&#8217;s the integration of subsoilers with a rotating hoe that lifts the soils and breaks only the surface layer, along with the root system of existing weeds. The result is a fluffy deep bed with the best structure possible to favor root growth. All that in just one go. Ernst had tried this system before by attaching subsoilers onto a regular rotating hoe. It worked well, but it was still not perfect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to the Swiss engineers Mathias W\u00e4ckerlin and Patrick Specker from RhenusTEK, we now have a machine tailored for that task. Watch below the tests and review of the first peace-farming implement available in the market. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The tests with the prototype happened in Switzerland during the summer, and the final product demonstration occurred in Italy and Germany in October\/November 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More info and orders, please contact <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rhenustek.ch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"www.rhenustek.ch (opens in a new tab)\">www.rhenustek.ch<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-vimeo wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-vimeo wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"PEACE FARMING TECHNOLOGY\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/372563300?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you have been to one of Ernst G\u00f6tsch&#8217;s workshops or presentations for the past years, you&#8217;ve probably heard him talking about his ideas for new machines &#8211; an essential step to up-scale the implementation and management of complex agroecosystems.
