Range fertilization by machinery

The fertilization of ranges by machinery can take place with many methods by applying the fertilizerdistributor machines as long as the machinery is suitable to satisfy the purpose of fertilization (heavy – light fertilization, strengthening of plants, the completion of a serious lack, speed and economy of labor). A sufficient machine that can be applied for the fertilization of ranges is the fertilizer-distributor with a rotation disc attached to a tractor. Its efficiency ranges from 20-40 stremmata/hour depending on the tractor’s speed. The best speed for an efficient effect is 3-6 Km/h. The big gradient of the ground (bigger than 20%) can operate restrictively for the above application.
