humus-PLANET
The humus-PLANET has been developed for mechanical weed control. The tree strip or vine row is processed at a uniform depth.
The implement is available for single-sided use or dual-sided use.
A brush rotates above the implements, the brush also supplies the last weed, directly adjacent to the trunk, to the implement. Equipped with the electro-hydraulic precision control system the humus-PLANET works with the utmost precision right up to trunk.

The humus PLANET can be hydraulically adapted to every terrain contour.
Well proven range of use
- Vineyards and orchards
- Managed grassland with fruittress
- Berry cultures
Mode of operation
- The weed is pulled out with the root and then chopped (mulching cultivation).
- The soil gets a crumbly texture and it stays where it should (no displacement of soil).
- The implement does not clog and works equally well in wet or dry, light or heavy, sandy or rocky soils.
- The weed brush even removes the last island of weeds directly on the trunk.
Equipment features
- Mounting: front or rear
- Frame with tool extension arm and rotary tiller head (optional rotary tiller head in working widths of 30 cm or 40 cm), alternatively with mulching head
- Hydraulic drive
- Electro-hydraulic fine control
- Drive for tilting the rotary tiller head (only for PE 1400)
- Universal mounting plate
Accessories / special equipment
- PTO
- 3-point frame
- Mulching head, one sided 40 or 60 cm
- Hydraulic equipment frame
- Additional pump for the oil supply of fine control incl. oil flow control (for PLANET bilateral or unilateral)
- Oil flow regulator with hose connections
- Oil cooler for Planet single-side or double-side (may be necessary in case of high outdoor temperature or high working speed)
