The re-consolidation of the soil after ploughing has been analysed after using three packer systems: Kverneland Packomat, Kverneland packer and a competitor packer. The graph compares the results from the actual re-consolidation and shows that: • using a packer has a significant re-consolidation effect compared to ploughing alone. • from an agronomic point of view, the Packomat and the trailed packer positively impact the entire ploughing depth. • the competitor system shows a lower degree of re-consolidation directly underneath the seeding horizon (5 cm).
