Subsoiling Background:

Most roots will go down over three feet seeking moisture if there are no obstructions in their way. However, over the last 80 years we have cultivated our ground at a constant depth of from 4” to 8”.

Over the last 20 years we have compacted this topsoil with very heavy tractors and machinery to the extent that we have caused a hard pan to develop that neither moisture nor roots can penetrate. Deep ripping will alleviate this problem, allow the precious moisture to penetrate and allow the roots to travel down to seek this required moisture.

Many tests and trials have been organised in conjunction with farmers and departmental and research organisations and on nearly every occasion the results and yields have proved to be very successful compared to crops grown in soil that has not been subsoiled or ripped.
