The soil will be delighted!

Just like any farmer preparing for the sowing season with the Wil Rich cultivators.

The Wil Rich field cultivators are the industry leaders for strength and performance, which has been proven by different tests time and time again. Agricultural technologies are constantly developing, and, in order to meet farmers’ requirements, the company is developing and introducing unique machinery, such as Wil Rich XL2 and Wil Rich QX2.

The Rich QX2 model features a floating hitch for more exact depth control in uneven terrain, and the optional flotation tires which serve to improve ground contour following.

The material distribution kit comes as standard equipment in the entire series. The kit distributes the weight over the trailed flotation device and the front gauge wheels, and increases stability during transportation. The hydraulic front wheels on the main frame of the QX2 cultivator are equipped with suspensions for improved stability.

‘Capable of working the soil up to 12 cm deep, the cultivators are designed for pre-sowing tillage and fallow management’, says Nikolay Bashkirov, Head of Machinery Sales Order Department of AgroCentreZakharovo. ‘The arrow tines do a great job of ground contour following additionally cutting roots of weeds. When used after a plough, the cultivator loosens the soil and prepares a uniform seed bed due to a packer wheel and special 3 rows of spring tines.

As for the Wil Rich XL2 cultivator design, it features a rigid hitch and makes it possible to operate at high speed on soils of different types. The high clearance and big distance between the shanks in a row create good residue throughput/free flow without buildup. Just as the Wil Rich QX2 does, this model has additional finish equipment, i.e. a 3 row striegel-type spring tine harrow and a tubular packer wheel, ensuring excellent seedbed preparation. The tillage depth adjustment is performed mechanically with a lever at the front of the cultivator. The implements are available with two different shank types with a point pressure of 91 and 136 kg, correspondingly. The strong 5-beam frame made of 76 mm - 102 mm structural shape has been built for the most severe field conditions.

‘The model range includes cultivators with a working width from 6.7 m up to 18.3 m’, continues Nikolay Bashkirov. ‘For better ground contour following, the Wil Rich XL2 cultivator is equipped with tandem wheels, which ensures preset cultivation depth even on challenging terrain.’

In addition, wider cultivators are equipped with gauge wheels on wings.

‘At the beginning of this year, our machinery range was expanded with Wil Rich XL2 cultivator’, says Sergey Shumskiy, Director General of Dolzhanskoye farming enterprise (Belgorod oblast). ‘The machine is good, with a wide reach and depth adjustment, and, most importantly, it is practical and reliable. In spring, it showed itself to advantage during pre-sowing works, having cultivated 80 ha of land in a ten-hour shift. We were ready for the sowing season on time, for which we are grateful to AgroCentre, one of the best suppliers of high-end machinery in the Russian agricultural market.’
