Cultivarea cartofului

Potato planters are equipped in chain transmissions that enable obtaining 15 various distances of the seed-potatoes in a row, in the range from 12 cm to 48 cm.

In a standard design, our potato planters offer adjustment of bucket elevator shaking. Appropriate setting of the shaker makes that unnecessary potatoes fall out of the buckets (when there are more than one seed-potato inside).

Attachment of the ridging discs allows adjustment of their angle of inclination and distances between them. By appropriate spacing of the ridging discs, we can achieve different shapes of ridges and different height of potato covering.

The belt tensioner is designed so that one lever tensions the belt from both sides. The tensioner facilitates fast switch-off of the planting belt (e.g. after completion of work or for winter).

The copying wheels allow maintaining the same planting depth in all rows, despite the curvature of the area. It is important, since the emergence of potatoes should occur at the same time over the whole plantation. Four-row planters, i.e. KORA 4, KORA 4h and KORA 4hp, have the copying wheels installed as a standard, while they can be installed also in the tworow KORA planter.

Shovel ploughs can be installed instead of the ridging discs.

KORA 2 planter has optional set for planting sprouted potatoes. The set includes: rear and side platforms for boxes with seed-potatoes and vibration panels that reduce sprout damages.

In KORA 2 planter, it is possible to install bulk fertilizer scatterer, used for feeding fertilizer very close to the planted potatoes.

The planters in the standard versions have the scoops installed (yellow) that provide pick-up of single sorted seed-potatoes, ranging in size from 35 to 60 mm. When planting undersized or oversized seed-potatoes (in relation to those specified above), it is advisable to use special inserts for small or big seeds, accordingly.
