Additional info
Soil cultivation performed with the GB Hybrid machine allows to prepare soil for the growing season in a no-till system. It is a perfect choice for cultivation of cereals or rapeseed. Experiments are being conducted on its use for growing potato and other crops as well. Besides the deep soil loosening, the machine offers a possibility of deep application of fertilizers, which motivates the plant to better develop its root system. This technique allows for precise fertlization, significantly reduces the costs and improves the efficiency of the crop cultivation.
•Possibility of starting work on the field earlier in spring;
•Reduced fertilizer consumption, reduced traffic on the field (number of required tractor passes with the agricultural equipment), better use of nutrients by plants allowing for their steady growth;
•Overall lower energy consumption in the crop production, reduced emissions to the atmosphere
•Significant improvement of soil fertility in the long run, reduced soil resistance during cultivation, reduced energy intensity of cultivation

Assessment
This section contains a brief assessment of the FEFTS described.
There are 3 basic categories: General, Environmental and Socioeconomic assessment.
The purpose of this assessment is to give a quick overview to the potential FEFTS user of its application benefits.
For each question, the Likert scale is used with the following possible answers:
Strongly disagree, Disagree, Neither agree nor disagree (Neutral)/non applicable, Agree, Strongly agree
General
This FEFTS contributes to improve the energy profiles of farming systems:Environmental
The application of this FEFTS directly reduces fossil energy use, in terms of:- Tractors and vehicles fuel consumption
- Tools and equipment fuel consumption
- Tillage reduction
- Fertilizer reduction
Socioeconomic
The application of this FEFTS contributes to cost reductions of farming systems:Keep in mind that this assessment is subjective, based on publicly available information.
All registered users are asked to evaluate each FEFTS and when an adequate number of reviews is gathered the results depicted here are updated. Each review is screened in order to avoid malicious practices.
FEFTS providers who do not agree with the assessment results, can send their inquiry to info@agrofossilfree.eu and a direct action based on their petition will be taken.
