  • Page 24: Harrowing

    4. HARROWING General The S-tine cultivators are intended for producing a level seedbed. Normal working depth for cereals is 0–6 cm. Because the seedbed cultivator is adjusted at the factory on a level surface, more accurate adjustments must be made on the field (the soil type, sinking of the tractor wheels and other factors have an influence on the settings).
