The benefits of mechanical between vine tool
An eco-friendly approach
Choosing a between vines blade spring tool to maintain your vines is an alternative to chemical weeding, and avoids the need to use polluting products. We’re talking here about mechanical weeding, a virtuous solution for your soil. A significant advantage at a time when sustainable agriculture is at the heart of our concerns.
The use of mechanical between vine tool to weed under the rows is part of a sustainable farming technique and helps to control weeds that compete with the stock. By weeding mechanically, the vines and especially the grape bunches are free of glyphosate residues.
Efficient and effective soil preparation
The other strong point of this method is that the inter-row cultivation is carried out in a single pass using the teeth tool VITEA teeth tool in a single pass, while working under the stock with our mechanical between vine tool.
When the between vines blade spring passes under the row, the soil is loosened and oxygenated. These two actions contribute to the mineralisation of organic matter, which is essential for the absorption of nutrients by the vines.
A cost-effective solution
Finally, by choosing a solution other than using plant protection products and herbicides, you can significantly reduce your costs (as well as preserving your soil). Switching to mechanical weeding is a way of reducing your costs as a winegrower, while at the same time adopting a virtuous, high-performance technique. It’s a winning approach in every respect, and above all one that’s here to stay.
How does our mechanical between vine tool works?
The aim of a mechanical between vine tool is to scalp the soil superficially as close as possible to the vine without injuring it.
To achieve this, the blade is designed to retract on contact with the vine and return to its original position thanks to the tension of the spring, the counter-blade and the rudder. The tool then zigzags along the row of vines, moving back and forth between the vines for effective weed control.
The soil is aerated and the vines are preserved to ensure the best possible development. To find out more about how our spring-loaded mechanical intercep works, read our article on the subject : how does a between vines blade spring work?
Who is our tool aimed at?
As its name suggests, this tool will intervene between the vines. It is therefore designed to be integrated into the technical itinerary of winegrowers. Above all, it will be perfectly suited to professionals working in organic farming or who are concerned about respecting their soils and their vineyards.
