Fresh from the drawing board – BUSA PreDisc Series

Hello everyone, welcome to our Fresh from the drawing board section. Today, we are introducing a typically no-till accessory tool. The machine is essentially a pre-cutter module. It can be attached to the rear of a conventional seeder, and its discs cut the soil surface, whether it’s stubble or crop residue, preventing the seeding elements from clogging. This specialized X-shaped

Fresh from the drawing board – UTIN mounted heavy disc harrow with BUSA Rotor

The basic structure is a suspended, heavy V-disc harrow. It was intended for forestry use, so it had to be as strong as the tractor’s lifting capacity could handle. We started with our super-heavy forestry suspended disc, using elements from our heavy agricultural trailed disc. The first row received tapered roller bearings with 610 mm disc blades. The massive but

Everyone knows the story where the horse was lost for want of a nail, … the courier, … the battle, … the country. But what does this have to do with loosening?

A little summer loosening – A tale of medium-deep subsoiling

We loosen the soil to eliminate its harmful compaction. Over time and with continuous use, our soil becomes compacted and silted, resulting in water stagnation in spring, inability to absorb heavy rains, surface runoff, and rapid drying in summer. Plants suffer on such soil, drowning in water in spring, drying out in summer, with roots unable to grow downward and

Extreme weather phenomena, such as drought and torrential rains, highlight the importance of soil loosening processes. While maintaining infiltration capacity, we must choose a primary tillage method that results in the least water loss. Medium-depth loosening tools can be integrated into almost any soil cultivation technology, making it essential to have at least one on every farm. However, the type

Fresh from the drawing board – A small-scale Madonna with extras

Our Rotary Weeder for forestry, codenamed GYMF – FX4, has been around for a while. If not before, the public could admire it at the 2024 agroMASHexpo. This version of the FX series has only 2-2 rotors and, in its default state, it operates as a quasi-row cultivator, working the seedlings from the right and left as it moves over

Weed control in vineyards and orchards using the Busa Rotor

The global trend of reducing the use of total herbicides has led to increasing demand for mechanical weed control machines, resulting in continuous innovations. The BUSA Bt. has developed its latest inter-row and under-row cultivators to meet the needs of its Hungarian, French, and Austrian partners. The rotary hoe weed control machines have already been successful in keeping the inter-rows
