WEEDING Efficient weed control is a prerequisite for healthy plant growth as the basis for yield, profit and safe food production. In addition, the protection of the environment is of rising importance. With the Farm to Fork policy, new standards have been set. Since certain weeds have developed resistance to herbicides, alternatives to chemical weed control are needed.

ARABLE TILLAGE SYSTEMS
YOUR KVERNELAND
INTELLIGENT FARMING SOLUTIONS
Choose the best farming solution for you and your land. Combine the highest possible yields with sustainability. This will start with the correct tillage. The choices you make depend on various factors and should match your specific circumstances, like soil structure, crop rotation, residue management, economic and ecological viabilities.
The choice is yours!
You must consider environmental and legal issues. From conventional methods to conservation tillage: the balance of operations at the right time has to be found to achieve high yields with the best soil condition (air, moisture, biological activity, etc.) with a minimum amount of energy, time and investment. For this, Kverneland offers a full range of intelligent farming solutions.
CONVENTIONAL TILLAGE
CONSERVATION TILLAGE
Conventional Tillage • Intensive method of cultivation
Mulch Tillage • Reduced intensity in terms of depth and frequency • More than 30% of residues are left on soil surface • Extended repose period of the soil • Cultivator and/or discs incorporate the crop residues within the top 10cm of soil for stable bearing soil • Full-width tillage - seedbed preparation and seeding in one pass • Protection against soil erosion; reduce soil loss by run-off and improve water storage capacity. • Improvement of soil moisture retention
Strip Tillage • Zonal strip loosening before or during seeding of up to 1/3 of the row width (Loibl, 2006). Up to 70% of the soil surface remains untouched • Strip-till combines the soil drying and warming benefits of conventional tillage with the soil-protecting advantages of no-till by disturbing only the area of the soil where the seeds are placed • Exact fertilising deposit • Soil protection against erosion and drought
Vertical Tillage / No-Till • Extensive method • Working soil vertically avoids additional horizontal layers or density changes • Increasing water infiltration, root development and nutrient take-up • Plants’ roots dictate the overall health of the plant, as they deliver nutrients and water throughout the season, contributing to a higher yield • A strong set of roots make plants more
• Complete soil inversion e.g. by a plough • Less than 15-30% crop residues left on soil surface • Seedbed preparation done by an active tool or special seedbed harrow • High phytosanitary effect by reduced pressure of weed and fungi diseases - fewer herbicides and fungicides needed • Better dry-off and faster increase of soil temperature for better nutrients absorption
resistant to wind and drought. • Lower energy input required

FLEXIBLE IN ALL ROW CROPS AND CEREALS INTER-ROW CULTIVATION AT THE RIGHT TIME
Certain weeds have developed resistance against herbicides, and chemicals will slow down crop development. Thus, an alternative is needed for effective weed control under different conditions. Mechanical weeding in row crops and cereals is an efficient tool for healthy plant growth as the basis for our customers’ yield and profit, as well as for a safe food production. The inter-row cultivator Onyx works in case of resistance and can be used in row crops and cereals. It will get as close to the plants as possible without damaging the crops by ensuring the straight line within the row. Penetration of the soil and an even depth control are challenging. Straight and accurate rows are needed with the row widths differing from crop to crop. Moreover, changing soil conditions and fields which are located on hills and slopes can be difficult and request versability by adjustable tools and efficient track control. Furthermore, due to the climate changes, farmers are often faced with draught resulting in hard soil surface with limited water reserve or slaking crusts after heavy rain falls. Therefore, there is a strong need of sustainability to restore water and air flow and to protect the soil moisture, improving the nutrients supply of the roots. By surface capping the upper topsoil, breaking the capped surface on certain soils after rain, it restores the water and air flow, stimulating physico-chemical reactions and soil life. By creating a weatherproof layer stopping the capillary rising of water to the surface, it also increases the water reserve. Precision is the key to success. For different crops and row widths, a quick adaptation is possible. Also the working width is adjustable to meet the requirements of various field and farm sizes. Individual rows can be switched on and off. An even depth and pressure control is ensured over the entire working width. Low lifting requirement reduces soil compaction. For operating in challenging conditions, the inter- row cultivator is prepared for extra control and guidance.

ONYX CONCEPT
WEEDING IN THE INTER-ROW
THE ONYX CONCEPT
The ONYX is designed to easily achieve an accurate and consistent result in field. The weeding efficiency is achieved even at high working speed, with or without guidance system depending on the row width, starting from 12.5cm for cereals. The sturdy design of the ONYX ensures a long lasting accuracy and lifetime.
Beneficial for crop and soil
Selective weed control The inter-row cultivator, ONYX offers a maximum in rigidity and adaptability. It is quickly prepared for larger fields by extensions. The parallelograms and working tools are rigid and rule out any wear and play. Stable and high accuracy even down to 12.5cm row width. The exclusive X-CONTROL pressure adjustment (max. 120kg) with a preloaded spring system transfers the load from the frame to the tines. A wide range of shares in Hardox and Tungsten Carbide quality as well as a full range of accessories are available to meet all sorts of conditions. The large diameter of gauge wheel avoids any bulldozing effect. Each element is working independently. Fitted with GEOCONTROL, up to 13 sections are automatically lifted by ISOBUS.
Stimulating physico-chemical reactions and soil life The shallow tillage at 2cm by the Kverneland Onyx improves aeration of the soil as a prerequisite to physicochemical reactions (humification, mineralisation of organic nitrogen). The crops will benefit from the plus of nutrients available with positive impact on the yield. By disrupting the topsoil’s upper layer, the harrow restores the fluids, water, air, vertical flows and stimulates physico- chemical reactions, mineralisation and soil life.
Protecting soil moisture By the flat-bed weeding, the Kverneland Onyx creates an isolating layer to stop the capillary rising of water to the surface, protecting the soil moisture within the seed layer. “One pass of weeding is like two times watering,” says a proverb. With view to the climate change, this is of major importance in dry areas and a general benefit for the crop’s start and growth.

DOUBLE-H FRAME
HIGH QUALITY
WITH LONG LASTING COMPONENTS
Accuracy, as a chain, does not suffer a weak link. From the hitch to the tine, every component of the machine features decisive innovation (modular tine-holders, tapered pins, hydraulic transport locks, etc.) for a proven and lasting effect. Thus, the Onyx inter-row cultivator maintains its best performances, even under more demanding conditions as with precision farming systems. X-CONTROL parallelogram The parallelograms are equipped with conical pins and hardened polymer bushings which do not float and rule out any wear and play. This provides excellent stability and high accuracy from 12.5cm up to 80cm row width. The constant depth control over the entire working width ensures best results in row crops and cereals. A hydraulic or mechanical parallelogram version is available for the lifting function. The hydraulic version supports GEOCONTROL for precise section control at headlands. The parallelogram is adjustable in depth via the wheel and the pressure with the preloaded double springs system, the exclusive X-CONTROL. This pre-loaded, spring-based system provides an individual load transfer from the frame to the tines of max. 120kg and eliminates any play or bouncing of the element. This gives the tines extra stability. The working depth stays absolutely constant, which is essential for the effectiveness of flatbed weeding at shallow depths without mixing the horizons.

INTER-ROW ELEMENT
VERSATILE
ADJUSTABLE TO INDIVIDUAL REQUIREMENTS
The right weeding machine for your row crops needs to be adaptable to a number of inter-row elements and additional tools to suit your with your individual field and soil conditions.
The X-CONTROL parallelograms can be fixed without restriction across the entire width of the frame so that row spacing can be adapted to any crop type, e. g. for cereals from 12.5cm. With the universal frame system (UF System) all connections can be easily changed thanks to its leak-free push-pull systems and ISOBUS connections which are available in specific spacings over the entire frame. The UF System enables a quick adaptation from one crop to another.
Prepared for all conditions
The depth guidance wheels ensure a good ground following in all conditions at a constant working depth in front of each weeding element without a bulldozing effect. According to row width, two versions (narrow or wide with low pressure) are available to avoid over rolling and damaging the crop. These guidance wheels are for setting the working depth and must be adjusted via a screw. A scale from 0-10 helps to be as precise as possible.
Precise weed control with flexible adaptation of the inter-row are ensured by the tine holder and slider system. Up to 3 holders and up to 5 tines per inter-row weeding element manage the full-cut between the plant rows of 12.5 to 80cm spacing.

TINES & SHARES
VERSATILE FOR PERFECT WEEDING
TO MEET ALL KIND OF CONDITIONS
The Kverneland Onyx can be equipped with different tines and shares to meet all requirements and conditions. The aim is to protect the plant while suffocate and scalping the weeds as close to the crops as possible, maintaining soil moisture by shallow tillage and moving the soil as less as necessary. The height adjustable straight A-tine without vibration effect with either A-shaped flatbed weeding or L-shape lateral adjustable shares ensure shallow tillage with precise scalping of the weed and can be used in all crops. The L-shares which are available in left and right version limits soil projections on young crops and are mounted on tines positioned close to the seeding row. Several share widths and assembly options are available for row widths from 12.5 to 80cm.
Alternatively a semi-curved SC-tine with duck foot share (DF-share) or half duck foot share (HDF-share) allow deeper and more intensive soil tillage due to a higher vibrating effect.
Optionally a ridger share positioned on the tine which is the closest to the sowing row of the crop and guides the soil flow directly to the sowing line. It is particularly suitable for developed higher crop vegetation to avoid suffocation of crop but not of the weed in the line.

PRECISION SELF-STEERING The Kverneland Lynx guidance interface side shift with camera control ensure flexibility, easy operation and absolute accuracy in the row. Thanks to the large movement range of up to 25cm on either side and the virtual re-alignment of guidance interface (VH-Control) in hilly conditions or curved sowing lines ensuring efficient and precise weeding. The LYNX guidance interface features a top-of-the-technology colour scanner camera allowing mechanical weeding also in higher vegetation. Here special row sensors/feelers support the steering of the Lynx. Depending on the individual requirements needs, the independent guidance interface allows operating different attached row elements, according to the crops to be weeded. The investment made in the self-guidance system is highly valuable, as it is dedicated to various inter-row cultivators and row systems.
One camera is standard and a second optional. The camera features Tillet & Hague technology, has a 6mm waterproof lens, HD-vision and enables 30 frames per second. It managed high-crop operation, recognises shadow
effects and strong light intensity. This prevents damage to crops during weeding. A second camera compensates for signal losses at headlands, gelled plots and places where the crop has not emerged. This achieves an even more accurate hoeing image. Equipped with the largest anchor wheel on the market. The Lynx keeps the weeding equipment on track even in chal- lenging hilly conditions, without bulldozing effect. Standard scrapers keep the anchor wheels clean. Kverneland is offering two models: Lynx 2000 and Lynx 3000 suitable for various tractors. There is also the option of a fully integrated version with Lynx 3000 and Onyx 4000 F.

GEOCONTROL
COST SAVING WITH PAYBACK Weeding with GPS-GEOCONTROL function in combination with an ISOBUS compatible implement ONYX is a major step towards precision farming and cost savings. Each weeding element with hydraulic control is automatically lifted or unlifted due to the Automatic Lifting System in exactly the right place. The one-to-one hydraulic adjustment of the parallelograms is steered from the terminal weeding element by weeding element via GPS shut-off. Manual operation is also possible but often not as precise as with GPS-GEOCONTROL. Aim is the total preservation of the growing plants especially handy in triangular fields, on curved or odd-shaped headlands. You can also continue weeding at night since the GPS-GEOCONTROL switch on/off is completely reliable. The machines equipped with ISOBUS technology with the help of the IsoMatch Tellus PRO terminal are fully configurable and automated, does not require the driver’s attention when operating, and relieves them from stress of damaging plants. In addition, it allows to automatically dodge some pre-defined areas providing a true precision operation, even with poor visibility or high vegetation. Result: In every situation, 100% of the plot is being hoed, 100% of the growing crop is being preserved.

Finger harrow The finger harrow (410 x 7mm) is mounted behind each inter-row element. It is available in different configurations with 3, 4, 5, 7 or 9 tines. Each tine is spring protected by coil. The harrows are placed and bolted on the last tine holder and work inter-row but also on the sowing line. The harrow uproots young weeds and puts the scalped weeds on the surface and supports for a better drying. Roots can not regrowth again. The aggressiveness is adjustable by angle and pressure. Several positions are possible. If necessary it can be lifted completely.
Ridger disc The ridger discs are mounted at the rear of the parallelogram and guided the soil flow to the sowing line. The discs are particularly suitable for developed crops. Aim is to suffocate the weed but not the crop which are growing in the sowing row and are in direct competition of sun, water and nutrients. The crop plants should not get any negative impact.
Adjustable swivel or straight opener discs The adjustable swivel discs (see picture) or straight opener discs are placed on the parallelogram in front of the shares to cut residues and also the soil before the tine to avoid roots disturbance by the tine pass, especially of the young crop. Both versions can be mounted pairwise to the inter-row element. It can be used for early weeding (e.g. quinoa, sugarbeet etc.)

COMBINATION
ONE PASS WEEDING AND BAND SPRAYING IN COMBINATION WITH IXTRA LIFE
Band spraying combined with mechanical weeding offers an efficient and environmentally friendly weed control solution for row crops. In this system, herbicides, fetilizer or other crop care products are applied in narrow strips (bands), typically directly over or alongside the crop rows. By targeting only the rows, band spraying together with the inter-row cultivation can significantly increase the efficiency of mechanical weeding. In this innovative weed control approach, herbicides or liquid fertiliser are applied in narrow, targeted bands directly over or alongside the crop rows. This ensures an precise application where the crops can reach the fertiliser and where early weed pressure is highest. At the same time, the Onyx managed the weeds between the rows.
The combination of both methods, mechanical weeding and spraying, optimized the weeding effect and plant growth. At the same it reduces herbicides use by up to 70% compared to conventional broadcast spraying.
