Contact: Adam Reid Director of Marketing (204) 479-4667 [email protected] New Versatile Vertical Tillage Tool July 19, 2016 – Langham, SK - Buhler Industries is launching a new tillage tool designed for maximum seasonal flexibility in a variety of soil conditions. Available in 28', 32' and 36', the machine is available as the Versatile Viking, through the Versatile dealer network. Residue Management The Viking is designed to manage heavy residue in the most difficult field conditions. It is capable of running at high speed (8 - 10 mph), at 0 degree gang angle for minimum disturbance, and up to 16 degrees (in 4 degree increments) for maximum residue management in heavy residue conditions. Further, these machines are able to run in a wide variety of soil, residue, and field conditions with the ability to chop, cut and size crop residue and move the soil and crop residue vertically with minimal soil compaction, and the ability to be less invasive while dealing with high residue conditions. Multi-Season Approach designed as a year-round multi-use tillage tool, the Viking offers the flexibility for pre-season and post-season use. Spring: 0" - 3" deep to warm/dry/aerate soil; a secondary tillage pass to prepare/firm up seedbed after another primary tillage tool has been over the ground. Also for use in working down crop residue remaining after the previous season, or to incorporate manure or fertilizer into the soil. Fall: For use in residue management instead of, or ahead of primary tillage, to manage heavy residue - to cut/chop/mix residue into the top 3" - 5" of soil; use in place of a heavy harrow to address down/lodged crop residue, clean up field edges, slough bottoms or wet areas. For incorporating manure or fertilized manure; level and spread out heavy crop residue; or cut and condition residue to help improve crop residue decay and reduce insect and disease concerns.
