Bizon enters upon rice bays
Bizon Company decided to develop area of rice growing technics. By this Bizon intends to satisfy the demand of rice manufacturers for qualitative and cost effective equipment. Krasnodar’ agrarians saw the leading models of the world agro engineering at the first demo show in Slavyansky region.
Kuban rice growing complex was built up 30 years ago and now it produces over 80% of gross grain harvest of Russia. In its basis there is a unique waterworks system. Engineering “Krasnodar rice large checks” are extensively used near and far abroad.
— In our country rice is under cultivation over an area of 150 thousand hectares and 119 thousand of them are in Krasnodar region, — tells Michael Radchenko executive officer of association “Kuban ricegrowers”. Every year we supply home market with over 360 thousand tones of head rice of different conditions. Today our first concern is agro technologies, field and equipment condition.
Seven districts of the western zone are engaged in rice growing. The main are Slavyansky and Krasnoarmeysky, providing 75% of gross rice harvest. As for Slavyansky district, there are 40 thousand hectares for rice.
— One of our key problems is lack of equipment which is necessary in conditions of heavy soil, — pointed Vasiliy Perin, chief agronomist of Slavyansky district. — Two thirds of agricultural equipment went out of date and can’t be used for such hard kind of farming. There is mainly
It is rice growers’ belief that in the hard waterlogged lands must work large powered machines which can increase the crop yield, pull in the expenses and agroindustrial terms. That’s why directors of Kuban leading farms got together for experimental operation of planters, seeders and fertilizers.
— “It’s the first experience with rice growing works for us” — said Vasiliy Abashkin, candidate of agricultural science and chief agrotechnologist of Bizon Company. — “We tried to gather optimal combination of equipment. We are looking forward for feedback from patricians”.
On the rice bays for cultivation of silty soil littered with bog vegetation real tillage is often used. Plough EuroDiamant Lemken has successfully coped with this problem. On the areas without weeds the real tillage isn’t necessary. The tillage with chisel cultivator is ample. Deep tiller Dondi synchronously provide the lift and milling of silty soil with special threader.
“It is much more advantageous to work using this technologies, — said Sergey Lagoshin, the Direktor of LLC “Aspect”. — It means saving fuel and time. I liked plough EuroDiamant and deep cultivator Dondi. Zool!”
If the rice bay does not demand the deep cultivating, the agrotechnologists recommend using disk tiller Rubin Lemken. Two rows of specific disks placed under the aggressive angle of attack provided qualitative mixing of stubbly remainders and brown coat.
In spring the fields treated with plough or deep tiller should be cultivated or harrowed in order to attain the soil maturity.
In this case the cultivator Torit Lemken and disk harrow Catros Amazone will help to agrarian. Seed and fertilizer spreader Rauch can saw to the prepared soil. The spread of seeds and granules is about 24 meters.
The powerful Fendt 936 has become the united force for all equipment. Because not every tractor can cope with presented aggregates and provide the minimal waste of fuel.
— Today we saw just what is necessary for our farmsteads, — said Sergey Azarkin engineering director of agroholding “Kubanris” of companies group “Razguljay”. — This technique is really demanded. It is very important that the machineries which can be used in the manufacture of rice and upland plants are universal.
Rice growers showed a great interest to agricultural machinery. According to their orders Bison Company forms the modern technological modules. Many agrarians will start the autumn field works using new agricultural technique.
