Potato Haulm Topping | GRIMME KS 75-4

To ensure a good skin set on the tubers, herbicides can be applied two or three weeks before harvest. The withdrawal of the approval of herbicides containing the active substance "Deiquat", such as Reglone, by the European Commission, means farmers are looking for alternatives to haulm destruction. GRIMME offers the most cost-effective and sustainable solution by means of mechanical haulm topping. By using a haulm topper, the haulm of the potatoes is mechanically crushed and deposited between the ridges. It is important to place the potato haulm precisely between ridges, especially if the stems of the potato plants are subsequently to be treated with other herbicides. GRIMME offers very robust and powerful haulm toppers for 2-, 4- and 6-rows and has more than 30 years of experience in this area.
