benefits of cultivation
Monosem cultivators offer a highly effective means of optimizing your yield. They are designed to promote the development of your crops.
Below are 3 benefits of using a Monosem cultivator:
- Weed control, eliminating even the most resilient weeds
- Tillage effects (fertilizer mineralization, soil restructuring and warming)
- Improved biological activity of soil
- Pest control (slugs, etc.)
- Elimination of ground caking
- Fewer runs and less fertilizer (if applied locally during cultivation)
- A versatile cultivator that can be used on a wide variety of crops
- Less water required (1 cultivation is worth 2 irrigations)
- Lower quantities of plant protection products required
- Lower quantities of fertilizer required due to localized fertilizing
- Less water erosion
A game-changing concept
Multiple tasks performed in one run:
- Inter-row cultivation eliminating weeds and aerating the soil to a greater or lesser extent depending on the tool used
- Crop rows protected by plant protection discs limiting mud spatter on crops and preventing them from being buried during early cultivation
- On-row cultivation to bury or uproot weeds including those closest to the crops
SPECIAL GUIDANCE SYSTEM
Since vegetable crops require special care, Monosem has designed a steerable, heavy-duty, versatile cultivator for all your weeding, cultivating and bedding tasks.
Steering
The smooth and precise steering mechanism is equipped with an integrated locking system allowing you to cultivate very close to your crops without any risk of damaging them. While sitting on the cultivator, the operator uses a steering bar to direct the guide wheels and move the cultivator sideways.
Lelièvre shovels and blades
A shovel that weeds between rows combined with a Lelièvre blade ideal for cultivating very close to the row. The Lelièvre blade is specially designed to cultivate on just one part of the tine, which is why it gets so close to the crops.
The shovel is also available with Planet blades suitable for delicate crops.
Bedder
The bedder is designed to earth up crops and cover any weeds growing on a row.
Duckfoot
The duckfoot goes deeper than the shovel and is used for aerating the soil (width: 20, 25, or 30).
Rigid shank
The rigid shank is designed to completely open up the soil for maximum aeration (flat or pointed shovel)
Additional pressure spring kit
The additional pressure spring helps penetrate even the hardest soils.
Bedding discs by ERMAS
Suffocates weeds on the row by covering them with soil.
Continually adjustable plant protection plate by ERMAS
This item can be adjusted to crops' stage of growth, protecting rows during cultivation. Particularly suitable for sugarbeet and vegetables.
Finger weeders by ERMAS
These should be used when crops are sufficiently developed for weeds to be uprooted on the row.
Rotative weeder by ERMAS
The rotative weeder is used at the early stages of crop development to uproot any weeds growing on the row. It also removes crusting from areas that have not been cultivated by tines.

FERTILIZING SYSTEMS
Our mounted fertilizer unit for localized application is a sturdy fertilizer system providing a perfect fit for your cultivating conditions.
Fertilizer is evenly distributed using a system combining auger-based metering and agitators. Stainless-steel augers with different pitches are available, ensuring that exactly the required quantity is metered.
Standard mounted plastic hoppers are available in two sizes.
- 175L hopper with 2 or 3 outlets
- 270L hopper with 3 outlets
"High-capacity" sheet-metal hoppers are available for 4 to 6-row cultivators with rigid frames. The hoppers have large openings, which means they can be loaded easily using 500 or 600kg bags and offer total capacity of 700 or 1,000L.
Fertilizer can be applied locally to one side of the row or on either side. It is subsequently buried by the cultivator tines.
Fertilizer is evenly distributed using a system combining auger-based metering and agitators. Stainless-steel augers with different pitches are available, ensuring that exactly the required quantity is metered.
The "standard" augers (A) are blue and meter 80 to 350kg/ha of fertilizer at inter-row spacing of 75cm.
The "high-output" augers (B) are red and meter 160 to 700kg/ha of fertilizer at inter-row spacing of 75cm.
A 12-ratio gearbox is used to adjust the quantity of fertilizer metered during planting.
