Pasture fan

A pasture fan is a modern, voluminous agricultural accessory made of metal and plastic to be attached to the tractor , to which it is firmly connected and from which it gets its drive.

The machine has long side arms that are folded up while driving to the site and then lowered mechanically in the pasture. The entire processing area is up to 7.20 meters wide in modern models and large areas are ventilated quickly and very efficiently.

All molehills and other debris are leveled in one operation , then small portions of grass seeds are blown out of the connected seed container with air pressure, these are distributed with a vibrating harrow and introduced into the ground. The turf becomes thicker through the targeted cultivation and at the same time the measure prevents soil and liquid manure from being washed away when it rains . Especially for farmers in the catchment area of dams , the use of the device means a contribution to improving the drinking water quality .
