Ridger Plough for Walking Tractors In Tanzania
The ridger plough forms raised ridges and furrows in prepared soil. Ridges are essential for many crops grown in Tanzania, including potatoes, sweet potatoes, cassava, maize and vegetables. This walking tractor implement builds even ridges quickly, saving hours of hard hand work with a hoe.
Ridging improves drainage in wet conditions and helps hold water in furrows during drier spells. It also gives root crops loose soil to grow in.
Ridging, Earthling Up and Furrowing Made Easy
The ridger plough is a versatile tool you can use more than once in a season. Use it before planting to form beds, then again to earth up soil around growing plants.
- Best for: root crops, maize and vegetable farming
- Key benefit: fast, uniform ridges for better drainage and root growth
- Other uses: making irrigation furrows and covering weeds
Earthling up potatoes protects tubers from sunlight and pests, which improves quality at harvest. Tractors Tanzania can advise on ridge spacing and setup. Contact us to add a ridger plough to your walking tractor implements.
