Farm Machinery Long Chisel
Long chisels in agricultural machinery are primarily used for deep soil loosening. Their core function is to break up the soil's plow base, enhance water retention, and reduce evaporation. Specific benefits include:
Deep Soil Loosening and Water Retention
The long chisel penetrates deep into the soil (typically to a depth of 25-30 cm), breaking up the hardened plow base formed by long-term tillage, thickening the loose soil layer, and significantly improving soil permeability and porosity. Tests have shown that deep-loosening plots retain approximately 400 cubic meters more water per hectare than non-deep-loosening plots, effectively creating a "soil reservoir" and extending crop drought tolerance by approximately 10 days during dry seasons.
Reducing Soil Loss and Evaporation
Non-disturbing soil operations maintain surface vegetation cover, reducing soil erosion and dust pollution. Furthermore, deep loosening reduces the evaporation rate of surface water by over 50%, effectively reducing water waste.
Improving Crop Root Development and Yields
The loosened soil environment promotes root growth, improves lodging resistance, and increases yields. For example, the corn yield in plots with 30 cm deep plowing increased by 5.9%-29.6% compared with plots without deep plowing. Crops with better root development can absorb water and nutrients more efficiently.
