Professional pastureland maintenance from Guttler GreenMaster The 5-in-1 system for pastureland and cultivation! GUTTLER* Leading in Soil Structure
Open the catalog to page 1Ensuring the very best pastureland! Curiosity and patience lead to innovative solutions! As a specialist in cultivation, we could never have dreamt of a day when we would also be able to set standards with regard to pastureland. What we originally set out to do was to test a trailed roller and because of a lack of free agricultural crop land, we tested it on pastureland. Only afterwards did I notice the “hoof print” left behind by our roller. This aroused our curiosity. After a challenging, but very enriching initial period, in 2005 we exposed the GreenMaster. Today, we provide a system that...
Open the catalog to page 2Flat roller: The extremely high individual weight can lead to a lack of air in the roots, which stagnates growth. Over-seed and roll in! The Aulendorf State Institute and Research Centre for Livestock Farming and Agriculture compared this procedure with a special drill machine (slit seeder). The result: "Despite a lower seed rate, the Guttler roller performed just as well as the slit seeder!” The “golden hooves” effect The famous sheep's hoof effect makes the difference! 305 prism points per square metre: ■ Greatly stimulates the tillering of grass ■ Controls broad-leaf weeds ■ Incorporates grass...
Open the catalog to page 3The HarroFlex pastureland harrow: aerating and dethatching Despite increased effectiveness, the HarroFlex is the most compact, multi-purpose pastureland harrow on the market. Achieve more with fewer, but more robust tines The number of tines a pastureland harrow requires depends on which tasks it must carry out. Traditional pastureland harrows must comply with two requirements that are totally contradictory in terms of the design of the tines: 1. Over-seeding By using as many flexible tines as possible, the turf is opened as much as possible with circular tine movements. The grass seeds are distributed...
Open the catalog to page 4The HarroFlex harrow and roller can be quickly attached Step by step to create a complete system Customers already using Güttler roller for cultivation, can add the HarroFlex harrow and seeder at any time. Modular system Whether the HarroFlex harrow and Güttler roller is 3.0 or 7.5 m wide, they can be quickly detached using the quick coupling and 2 bolts. This means that the HarroFlex and the roller can be used as mounted machines in their own right! The pneumatic seeder is simple and robust! Tank: 660 l = approx. 150 kg grass seeds Tank: 200 l = approx. 50 kg grass seeds Achieve more with less...
Open the catalog to page 5The spring treatment for your pastureland Harrow, roll and over-seed in one pass Giving your pastureland the best possible start in spring: • Level molehills and manure • Aerate the turf – remove old thatch • Over-seed, close holes • Re-establish soil contact Distributing manure using the GreenMaster 300 Holes in turf must be closed quickly Holes often appear in pastureland at the end of winter, and are caused by: • Over-wintering • Damage done by mice • Molehills • Damage to grass caused by machine traffic The GreenMaster rectifies damage like this quickly and efficiently in a single pass: •...
Open the catalog to page 6Ensuring pastureland is always high-quality Over-seeding at the right time Intensive use and the natural ageing process of grasses leads to a slow decline in the grass stock, which is why re-seeding must take place regularly and seed must be given a chance to grow. The late summer or early autumn tend to be the best times of year to over-seed: The old turf is no longer growing as rapidly as in spring, so there is less danger that the over-seed will become suffocated. The water supply is more reliable than in spring. At the very least, the plants can rely upon dew being formed at night. The soil...
Open the catalog to page 7An often unrecognised problem ■ Soil compaction leads to a lack of oxygen in the root zone. ■ Precious grasses fall out. ■ The roots of common panicles immediately migrate into the opened holes. ■ Common panicles slowly dominate. The surfaces look green, but on closer inspection problems appear: ■ Initially, the crop and forage quality still appear fine. ■ Then, however, the yield drops off. ■ Feed intake is reduced, as the livestock do not like the dull, fusty taste of common panicles. Soil compaction is almost unavoidable. It damages precious grasses and creates favourable conditions for common...
Open the catalog to page 8This is not the third cut, but common panicles! People are often surprised by the amount: 25 m3/ha of common panicles is not uncommon. You must remove it at all costs! Common panicles are picked up by the harrow, raked and removed. Finally, grass is sown. Recondition around 20% of your pastureland each year - in 5 years, the task will be complete. You can retain your pastureland in its reconditioned state by means of regular care and reseeding. Precious grasses root deeply into the soil and are This picture shows the grass, 3 months after well anchored in the soil. There is no danger that...
Open the catalog to page 9GreenMaster – more than meets the eye! Repairing damage caused by wild boars: The soil is harrowed cross-ways several times, at speeds of between 9 to 12 km/h. The soil should be dry and crumbly, and not turn into mud. Over-seed, so long as no more frost is expected. Level any damage caused by wild boars with the power harrow … and immediately over-seed with the prism roller®.
