Arable crops system in Germany – Booklet #2

  • May 16, 2025May 16, 2025

Key Hub Conclusions:
We organized a demo-event on the topic of mechanical weeding where farmers had the opportunity to exchange their experiences on associated machinery and its utilization. A range of modern harrows and hoes were explained and demonstrated in the field. The discussion with arable crop farmers has shown that there are several circumstances which hinder the shift from herbicide use towards mechanical weeding. Mechanical weeding requires more effort in terms of labor and higher costs for machinery and diesel. Moreover the efficiency of the mechanical weed control strongly depends on climate and soil conditions.
