The inter-row cultivation of wide-row crops, or weeding, is an operation that was already largely used in the fields by our grandfathers. However, people gradually left this method as the use of chemical preparations expanded. Due to the increasingly stricter legislation and restrictions in the use of herbicides, weeding is coming back to life.<\/h2>\n

\nEvery good farmer knows that weeding is not only about eliminating weeds, but it also considerably contributes to other processes and positively stimulates crop during vegetation.
\n<\/p>\n

TWO VERSIONS OF THE INTER-ROW CULTIVATOR<\/h2>\n


\nOur product portfolio includes two versions of inter-row cultivators for this operation: the versatile ROW-MASTER RN<\/span><\/a> and the ROW-MASTER RN_S<\/span><\/a> cultivator designed for sugar beet. Let\u2019s have a look at ten technical advantages that BEDNAR inter-row cultivators bring to their users when compared with the competition.
\n<\/p>\n


\n\"\"<\/p>\n

<\/div><\/p>\n


\nThe ROW-MASTER RN model is manufactured in a working width from 4.8 to 9.6 m and frame clearance of 80 cm<\/em>
\n<\/p>
\n<\/div>\n


\n\"\"<\/p>\n

<\/div><\/p>\n


\nThe special version for sugar beet cultivation has a width from 3 to 12 m and frame clearance of 42 cm<\/em>
\n<\/p>
\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

1. ROBUST FRAME<\/h3>\n


\nBoth versions of the machine have a massive square frame where the cultivation working units are mounted. In comparison with other manufacturers, the increased robustness of BEDNAR cultivators bring two advantages to the users: a longer service life and higher resistance at work, even in demanding conditions.
\n<\/p>\n

2. HIGH FRAME CLEARANCE<\/h3>\n


\nFrame clearance considerably influences the use of cultivators during vegetation. The universal ROW-MASTER RN cultivator model offers a frame clearance of 80 cm and thus it is one of the cultivators on the market with the highest frame clearance. Weeding corn and sunflower fields at a later growth stage is an advantage. The ROW-MASTER RN_S cultivator has a frame clearance of 42 cm, which is sufficient for cultivating sugar beet crop.
\n<\/p>\n

3. DOWN PRESSURE OF THE CULTIVATION UNITS<\/h3>\n


\nQuality weeding requires the cultivation unit working at the set working depth and penetrating soil even when it is dry. BEDNAR uses silent-block mounting of the cultivation units in the inter-row cultivators, which increases the down pressure by up to 80 kg per unit. Moreover, the moulded silent-block pins absorb shocks into the supporting frame and thus increase the service life of the machine.
\n<\/p>\n


\n\"\"<\/p>\n

<\/div><\/p>\n


\nThe working depth of each unit is simply set by a manual spindle mechanism<\/em>
\n<\/p>
\n<\/div>\n


\n\"\"<\/p>\n

<\/div><\/p>\n


\nThe individual parts of the cultivation unit can be adjusted without the need for tools<\/em>
\n<\/p>
\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n


\nSome competitors do not pay attention to the down pressure of the cultivation units at all; others use springs which, however, stretch over time and have to be replaced.
\n<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

4. PERFECT TERRAIN TRACING<\/h3>\n


\nThe individual working units are mounted to the main frame using a maintenance-free parallelogram hitch. We have had a good experience with the parallelogram in many machines as it helps keep the set working depth precisely. The working depth can be set individually for each cultivation unit.
