STO
The STO rotary mulchers are preferred in orchard implementation.
Extremely flat and with a smooth surface it slides through under low-hanging boughs without damaging branches and fruit.
However, the outstanding characteristics of the STO also ensure optimal mulching results for green area maintenance and on managed grassland with fruit trees.
As desired, the mulched material is distributed in the tramline behind the implement, or uniformly distributed laterally in the tree strip. The desired distribution can be adjusted on the discharge flaps.
