INTENDED USE
The compact KRUK disc harrow is a universal tool for the cultivation of the top layer of soil
to the depth of 5 cm to 15 cm. It is designed for use after harvest and before sowing following
ploughing or in soil cultivation without ploughing, when the vegetation remains are not covered but
mixed with the top soil layer (i.e. mulched). It may be used on all types of soils including those with
stones thanks to the use of elastic suspension of the harrow discs. The harrow allows for opening
and mixing of the soil and in connection with the packer also for packing and compressing of soil.
Due to the resistance to clogging the harrow is well suited for the cultivation of tall stubbles which
remain after the harvest of crops and corn and for cultivation of aftercrops intended to be used as
fertiliser.
