Question 1

What is a chisel plough used for?

Accepted Answer

The chisel plough provides deep tillage in the post-harvest period without the need for a plow. It breaks the hard subsoil layer, deeply tears the soil, aerates it and creates an ideal structure for root development.

Question 2

What is the difference between a chisel plough and a subsoiler?

Accepted Answer

Both are used for deep tillage, but the chisel can be applied more frequently (every season) while the subsoiler is used every 3-4 years. The chisel leaves stubble on the surface for erosion protection, while the subsoiler goes deeper (45 cm).

Question 3

What is the difference between AYERMAK chisel models?

Accepted Answer

AYERMAK ÇZL 10, ÇZL 13 and ÇZL 16 models offer 10, 13 and 16 shank options respectively. More shanks mean wider working width and require a more powerful tractor.

Question 4

Can the chisel plough be used in dry periods?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the chisel plough preserves soil moisture during dry summer months with its low-clod working feature. It prevents rainwater from staying on the surface and allows it to penetrate into lower layers.

Question 5

How does the chisel plough protect against erosion?

Accepted Answer

The chisel plough leaves stubble on the surface while working the soil. This creates a natural protection layer against water and wind erosion. It also prevents hardpan formation, allowing water to penetrate the soil.
