Agronomic - Foldable Frame Organic Tine Harrow for Crop Weed Control
The Agronomic Tine Harrow is designed for effective hoeing and mechanical weed control across various crop types, including cereals, corn, beets, rapeseed, potatoes, and vegetables. This machine features a unique foldable welded frame and a distinct design where each 7 or 8 mm tine is equipped with an independent spring, enhancing uniformity in soil work and reducing the 'rake' effect common in traditional harrows. Notably, the harrow includes a 470 mm tine suspended above a panel with the highest clearance in the market, enabling passage through tall crops. Adjustable tine pressure can be configured mechanically or hydraulically, allowing for instantaneous adaptation to differing terrain types. Enhanced controls such as the manual aggressiveness adjustment and hydraulic settings permit fine-tuned management directly from the tractor cab. The machine's robust frame supports optimal pressure distribution, backed by Kevlar-reinforced wheels to resist punctures, ensuring reliability and durability.
This machine can be used for organic crops but also as an alternative to weed control, soil aeration, growth recovery(depending on the type and equipment chosen)
Its use concerns cereals, corn, beets, rapeseed, potatoes, vegetables, etc.

Agronomic Tine Harrows are characterized by a foldable welded frame. Each tooth (7 or 8 mm) is independently tensioned by its own spring.
Agronomic Tine Harrows are the only one on the market to have a spring with its stem which forms only one piece. This ensures that you never get tangled when folding or suffer premature wear.
Having one spring per tooth allows for better uniformity of work and a much less “rake” effect compared to an angular panel harrow.
With its 470 mm tine and its spring system above the panel, Agronomic Tine Harrows have the highest clearance under the frame on the market, which allows it to pass through tall crops.

Each panel has a manual aggressiveness adjustment, but the hydraulic adjustment option is a real asset.
It allows you to change the setting instantly from the tractor because the type of terrain and the stages of emergence are very rarely uniform across the entire field.
The angle of the tooth is adjusted by the wheels which hold the machine at a height chosen by a simple crank. On a working width of 12.50 m we have 6 front wheels which keep the machine parallel to the ground.
As an option, 2 rear wheels allow you to control the level of the machine as well as the harrows behind these 2 wheels. The wheels are Kevlar reinforced which helps prevent punctures.
We chose a heavy frame for two reasons:
- The first is to have a robust and simple chassis
The second is the most important, it is to actually have 4.5 kg of pressure per tooth at maximum pressurehave 4.5 kg of pressure per tooth at maximum pressure. Let’s take the example of a 12.50m Harrow (with option: hydraulic adjustment and rear idlers) which weighs 2.3T divided by 480 teeth. So we actually have 4.8 kg of pressure per tooth.
Aggressiveness is regulated in 2 points. First of all the adjustment of the spring pressure but also by the angle of the tines
It is adjusted with the height of the chassis using the wheels. As a general rule, the tip of the tine must be perpendicular to the ground but it can vary depending on the desired aggressiveness. The more you raise the machine, the more forward the tooth is, the more aggressive it is and vice versa. It is obviously necessary to supplement with spring pressure.
