A revolutionary step forward in technology to more efficiently manage unwanted weeds sprouting in the lower sections of orchards and vineyards has been presented by the Italian company Rinieri. The Turbo Evo Lite model uses feeler rods to automatically regulate the machinery’s lateral movement, ensuring the safety of the plants.
“We are expanding the Turbo line by adding a new model: the Turbo Evo Lite,” says Fabrizio Bresciani, the marketing manager. “This model offers the main advantages of the series at an attractive price. Mechanical weeding is becoming increasingly important in modern agriculture, and our equipment is moving in this direction. Even the new inter-row units, which can be mounted at the front or rear, are designed for under-row weeding. They offer the functionality of multiple tools, starting with discs that can be supplemented by weeder blades and reinforced plows equipped with a plant-cleaning spatula, if necessary.”
They are available in single and twin versions, which means they can operate along two rows simultaneously. The Turbo Evo Lite plows come in different widths to meet every need.
However, Bresciani points out that “if the quality of the work is not combined with sufficient speed to minimize the time needed for the work itself, a good quality of operation is of little use. In this regard, the Turbo Evo Lite can safely reach a maximum speed of ten kilometers per hour. This is made possible by the patented EasyRide system, which automatically and constantly adjusts the position of the operational components to maximize productivity while protecting the plants. This gives the operator an advantage because they can focus solely on controlling the field of vision.”
