​​Autorotation... saving time and earning accuracy

Spring is coming up and spraying tasks are remates to it.  Cereals and pulse vegatables need some phytosanitary treatments in order to kill weeds. So far, everything is like the rest of years. On this occasion, the most distinguish feature in our spraying works has been the new characteristic of Cerea autosteering system called Autorotation.

The autorotation allows us to turn on headlands automatically so this manoeuvre is simpler and faster than it was before. The autosteering system drives the tractor to put it on the next row with amazing accuracy... you can see it in our video.

We are using a Cerea version that needs to be indicated when Cerea has to begin the turning manouevre. With the following version (it will be delivered on the next days), it will be absolutely automatic and we only will need to fix the contour of the field where we would like to work. Cerea can work a whole field in automatic mode without driver has to touch tablet screen on headlands​.

​We show you some pictures our friend Alberto sent us about his new Amazone UF sprayer.

Manure for vineyard every three years

​After our posts about FIMA, we continue with our editorial to show you more farming works... at this time a task in the vineyard. We have published many post about viticulture (you have to remember that this crop generates a great variety of works during the whole year) besides, we have also published tasks with manure and slurry. Now, we are going to speak about nutrition task using manure.

Our great friend Oscar (from El Provencio​ Village​) sent us a few pictures about his manure tasks in his vineyards. He spreads manure every 3 years (he uses mineral fertilizer in the other years). The dose used is 13,000kg/he.

As you can see in our pictures and video, the muck spreader that was used put manure in the middle of each row and it is buried at 35cm (it can upload about 2,700kg). The main goal is to fix the manure at an important depth in order to avoid having any problems when he is going to harrow vineyard using the cultichissel. Another advantage of this system is the muck spreader doesn't damage roots of vinestocks... other farmers choose to bury manure in two rows near vinestocks. We think the first option is better.

This job should be carried out in December (before pruning), but this year this task was been finished​ ​only some days ago because autumn was really dry and this task was delayed.

FIMA 2016

FIMA outdoes itself. The 39ª International Fair of Agriculture Machinery closes its doors with record statistics. These figures include: more than 227,000 visitors (who came from more than 50 countries), 1,357 sales stands and more than 150,000 s.q.m. which consolidate FIMA as one of the best agricultural fairs in Europe. Without any doubt, it is a great place for farmers and especially for lovers of agricultural machinery.

All important brands related to the agricultural sector were present in FIMA with their best products. We have already discussed about some of them like New Holland, Pöttinger, Gascon International,... Definitely, FIMA is the best place to know the latest market  and where you can reach several conclusions when you search for your farm machinery. It is true that all of them exhibit their flagships and therefore all of them are really large machinery. Although, in fact they are not often appropriate for the Spanish agriculture (we should remember the average power of tractors sold in Spain was of 114.8 CV)… without going any further, we were looking for a cultichisel of 17 rows and practically we couldn’t see any model :(. Perhaps, we can find the major variety on tractors where the brands have models of all powers, but in terms of implements, the most machinery is really huge. We have also underline that there is a large number of companies exhibiting tools for vine and tree crops... it shows that the sector is booming.

On the other hand, we would like to mention, as a constructive criticism, that the accesses to the fair were very poor... it is not acceptable to be waiting more than an hour in the car to advance the last 500 meters. The second day we visited the fair, we were forced to arrive at 8:30am when the opening hours was at 10:00, in order to avoid the traffic jam. In addition to that, we would like to comment on the award of prizes in terms of New Techniques... these awards seem to be a copy already allocated in Agritechnica and therefore FIMA is not looking for their own ranking to enhance companies that research, design and manufacture in Spain ... many examples of that could be Cerea, Arcusin, Ovlac,... which are companies with great products "made in Spain". Perhaps, FIMA could create a category for it.

Finally, we would like to congratulate the winners of the "Tractor of Spain" and especially to the Doctor Agronomist Mrs. Pilar Linares Anegón because of her VI ANSEMAT prize that was awarded during the fair in honor of her great career in the agriculture sector.

Here you can see a list of videos that we performed during our visit, where we show you some of the products exhibited at the fair... Thank you very much to everybody who cooperated with us during our visit to get them.
