Top-Tilth cultivator to be shown at Cereals
- Grange Machinery will present new innovations on stand 1041 at the Cereals Event, being held at Bygrave Woods at Newnham Farm, Hertfordshire on 11-12 June 2024
A family-run company based in Holderness, East Yorkshire, Grange Machinery manufactures agricultural machines and wearing parts that offer affordable solutions to farmers across the UK, Europe and as far afield as New Zealand, recently launching in Australia.
The Grange Machinery product range helps lower the cost of crop establishment whilst improving soil structure and efficiency in the field.
Customers invest in Grange machines to enhance and add versatility to their current farming system. Grange machines are highly adaptable and can transform existing systems that may already be on the farm, offering greater flexibility and efficiency.
The Grange Strip-Till Preparator has proved highly successful in offering deep loosening and tilth creation in strips for precision seeding using an intensive tine and disc arrangement, and customer feedback has led to the development of this system across the full working width.
Designated the Top-Tilth Cultivator (TTC) this versatile new implement offers a 3-in-1 cultivation solution.
It features hydraulic front leading discs and hydraulically retractable Grange low disturbance legs to lift and restructure the soil at depth, ahead of a full width beam of staggered wavy discs which cultivate the top section of soil.
A unique parallelogram feature allows for the disc beam to be hydraulically adjustable to accurately manage the disc working depth for optimum performance in varying conditions and soil types.
A full width Guttler rear packer roller offers final cultivation and consolidation, producing a seedbed ready for drilling.
The three elements fitted to the frame allow the machine to become a full system cultivator; a shallow disc cultivator by taking the legs out of work; or by raising the discs, a low disturbance loosener.
Available in 3m, 4m and 6m working widths, the TTC needs from 250Hp+.
After extensive on-farm trials, Grange Machinery will also unveil its move into the seeding market at Cereals 2024, with an exciting development that is being kept firmly under wraps until the event.
Rhun Jones, managing director of Grange Machinery, comments:
“Cereals is a very important event for Grange Machinery, where we meet existing and potential customers and can share with them our focus on developing equipment to improve soil health and help farms operate efficiently in changing markets and against the background of climatic challenges.
“The Top-Tilth Cultivator was developed very much to meet customer demand and this is also the approach that we have taken with our first venture into seeding equipment. We look forward to welcoming visitors to our stand to discuss how we can work with them.”
