Falcon – ideal solutions for soil cultivation and bedforming
Tough. Reliable. Durable. These are but a few of the characteristics attributed to Falcon’s range of tillage and seedbed preparation equipment. Taking centre stage are Falcon’s Rotavator and Bedformer. Both the Rotavator and Bedformer are designed and manufactured with the demanding conditions of the African continent in mind and offer spot-on solutions to various soil preparation challenges. These challenges include impacted earth, root bound by weeds, or dense, heavy soils. By combining soil cultivation with bedforming not only saves time and reduce fuel consumption but also improves operational efficiency.
Falcon Rotavator
The Falcon Rotavator is the ideal implement for cash crop farmers who need to bury and incorporate crop residues quickly, between crops. The rotor turns at the optimum speed for all cultivation operations and the required tilth can be obtained by adjusting the forward speed and the setting of the rear deflector. Blades can be mounted in a three-bladed configuration for a fine tilth or in a two-bladed configuration for a coarser finish. The applications of this versatile implement include seedbed preparation – from coarse to fine, on uncultivated, ripped or ploughed soil, green manuring, fertiliser incorporation, weeding, stubble mulching, planting kikuyu grass, preparing playing fields, landscaping and soil stabilisation for roads. The range is suited to tractors rated from 35 to 60 kW and offers working widths from 1,25 to 2 m and a maximum working depth of ±300 mm. All rotavators are supplied with a PTO shaft and torque limiting slip clutch, central and offset mounting points, depth control skids, parking stand and a complete set of blades.
Falcon Bedformer
The Bedformer’s adjustable forming elements, mounted on the frame of the rotavator, creates a bed at the width required for a particular crop and the rear flap leaves a perfect level bed so that planting can commence immediately. The F175 and F200 rotavators also have as an option, a bedformer with an additional central former which allows you to create two, narrower seedbeds in a single pass. This bedformer was specifically developed to assist vegetable farmers who requires additional row spacing.
