DESCRIPTION

IMPLEMENT FOR REGENERATIVE AGRICULTURE IN WOODY CROPS

This descriptive report refers to a mixed implement with the following characteristics: a first row of roller composed of an aerator type roller, tank and application bar of solid or liquid ecological phytosanitary product, and finally, a second row of roller called faca.

Background of the invention

The most important challenge in the agricultural sector is to implement measures that improve biodiversity and contribute efficiently to the fight against climate change, which is why a new way of working in the field is now being born, which is known as regenerative agriculture that aims to preserve and recover the earth's natural nutrients.

New farming implements are appearing on the market intended for this purpose. An example is this American patent US20090008108 which describes an implement for aerating the soil designed to minimize soil breakage.

Another is this Canadian patent CA2478284 which describes an apparatus for dispersing liquid natural nutrients throughout agricultural soil.

The invention described below shows us a farming implement that has a triple function; First, it aerates the soil, second, it spreads liquid or solid phytosanitary product and finally, a roller that knocks down the grass and creates a vegetal layer that, due to putrefaction, becomes organic matter.

Description of the invention

The implement for regenerative agriculture consists of a three-point mooring to the tractor unit to which a structure made of welded iron profile and plate is mounted. The upper part of the structure is a platform on which a tank connected to a spreader bar is fixed. Under the structure, two rollers are mounted tied to it in its axis of rotation, we call the first work roller the aerator, and the second work roller we call the faca.

The tank tied to the upper platform of the implement structure can contain solid or liquid ecological phytosanitary product. For the application of solid product, an electric seeder is installed and in the case of application of liquid product, the tank is complemented with atomizing equipment.

We call the first row of roller of this implement the aerator; It consists of a cylindrical body in which some rings distributed equidistantly along the axis are welded, complemented by other half steel rings that fix and press some spikes by means of through tightening means that keep them attached to the roller. Mounted in this way, it is easy to replace or repair damaged tines.

These spikes can vary in shape depending on the type of terrain. The spikes are made of sheet steel with a perimeter that is curved at the base and ends in a pointed top at the opposite end. It has two through holes, close to the base, these holes are to be fixed to the shaft using through tie-down means. One of the edges of this spike, the edge that attacks the earth, the one that first comes into contact with the earth, is beveled to penetrate the ground and not lift the plant mantle. The flatness of the spike is broken because it is given a small inclination with a fold to favor the moldboard effect.

The second row of roller is called faca. It is a special roller composed of a cylindrical body to which rectangular plates are welded on one of its long edges, in the direction of the axis of the cylinder and distributed over the entire surface in an alternating manner, in a staggered manner. The outer edge of These plates are not beveled, their purpose is not to dig into the ground, it is to knock down the grasses and “cut their throats” to form a plant blanket, which on the one hand protects the ground from UVA rays and on the other hand takes advantage of the nutrients and organic matter which is created by the putrefaction of this vegetal mantle.

This equipment or implement is transported suspended, significantly favoring maneuverability between trees.

The rollers can be equipped with a hydraulic extension that favors adaptability to different widths of plantations.

The structure also has spaces in its upper part prepared for the implementation of weights in case the ground conditions require it.

All information referring to examples or embodiments forms part of the description of the invention.

Description of the figures

To better understand the object of the present invention, a preferential practical embodiment of the same has been represented in the attached drawing.

Figure 1.- Shows a perspective view of the front part of the implement.

Figure 2.- Shows a perspective view of the rear part of the implement.

Figure 3.- Shows a front view of the spike (5).

Preferred embodiment of the invention

The implement for regenerative agriculture in woody crops as shown in Figure 1 consists of a three-point mooring (1) welded to a structure (2) constructed mainly of welded iron profile. This structure (2) forms a platform in the upper part, being configured in the lower part to allow the coupling of the shaft of two rows of rollers. A tank (3) is mounted and fixed on the upper platform. This tank can contain solid or liquid ecological phytosanitary product; For the application of solid product, the tank (3) is complemented with an electric seeder, when liquid product is applied, the tank is complemented with a liquid product applicator. In the first row of roller, as seen in Figure 1, an aerator roller is mounted, which consists of a cylindrical shaft (4), to which some rings (6) distributed equidistantly along the shaft are welded. shaft (4). These rings (6), complemented by half rings, press and tie to the shaft some spikes (5) made of steel plate with a perimeter that is curved at the base and ends in a point at the upper end, with the edge that attacks the ground. (10), beveled to lift the least amount of soil possible. A fold (9) is made on the surface of the spike (5) to promote the moldboard effect. This figure also shows the second row of roller, which is called faca and which consists of a cylinder (7) to which rectangles (8) of iron or steel plate distributed longitudinally along the entire surface are welded. staggered axis.

The implement for regenerative agriculture in woody crops shows in Figure 2 a clearer view of the second row of roller in which a complete view of the faca roller (7) and the staggered arrangement of the rectangles (8) can be seen. These rectangles do not have a beveled edge since they are not intended to penetrate the ground. This roller is designed to knock down the grass and break the stem to create a plant blanket on the ground that protects the ground from the sun and takes advantage of the material. organic grass rot. The structure (2) has a free flat surface on both sides of the tank (3) to be able to add weight to the implement when the terrain requires it. The three-point mooring type (1) is to make the implement suspended to allow better maneuverability on woody terrain.

The implement for regenerative agriculture in woody crops shows a front view of the spike in Figure 3. It shows in detail the curved base to correctly seat the through holes (11) on the cylindrical shaft (4) to be fixed to the rings (6) by means of fastening through the pieces. Also seen in Figure 3 is the position of the fold (9) to favor the moldboard effect and the edge that attacks the ground (10), which is beveled.

The person skilled in the art will readily understand that he can combine features of different embodiments with features of other possible embodiments, provided that such combination is technically possible.
