The development of our StalkPuller began with an interesting problem. The task was to remove stalk and root residues from the stubble. Naturally, our first recommendation was the BUSA Rotor in a strip‑till configuration, which works well if the goal is to crush the stalks to prevent corn borer overwintering. However, it doesn’t pull out the root balls — it
The purpose of stubble cultivation is defined by the chosen crop production technology. Fortunately, in Hungary today, it rarely needs explaining that stubble should not be tilled deeply right away—whether using conventional plowing or no-till methods, the goal is shallow cultivation. Within this, some aim for thorough mixing, working down to 8–10 cm deep, while others are satisfied with cultivating
First, let’s clarify the task, as it sets the requirements. One function of stubble stripping is to create a moisture-stable soil structure. By the end of the growing season, our soil typically settles. While the crop’s microclimate keeps it moist and relatively workable, it dries out, starts to crack, and hardens a few days after harvest. By working the surface
