The FINN Krimper attachment is the ideal partner to any seeding project that requires the use of straw or hay to protect the seed and help it grow by retaining moisture. FINN Krimpers anchor the straw into the soil to avoid loss of material or coverage. At the same time, the Krimper ensures the reduction of erosion and runoff while the seed is germinating. Alternatively, if the straw or hay is not anchored to the soil, it is subject to the risk of blowing or washing away by high winds or rainfall.
Features:
- Designed with 20 inch diameter heavy-duty notched coulters that are evenly spaced 8 inches apart to eliminate potential problems such as rock jammings
- Each coulter is equipped with scrapers to clean the blade
- When the Krimper is rolled across newly placed straw or hay it punches a portion of the material into a slot in the soil which is closed as the blade is removed to securely fasten the straw to the ground
- Ballast boxes are built into the frame for added auxiliary weight in adverse conditions
