Grassland Combi

APV offers an innovation in the area of grassland management that many dairy farmers have always been wishing for: A grassland combination of harrow and roller that is lightweight and can also be divided. The Grassland Combi GK consists of a two-row harrow with a levelling board and a roller. Your advantage with APV: The harrow and roller can be used combined at the rear. However, you can also use the two implements separately at the front and rear using the front mounting accessory. The trailing roller convinces separately too, for example for applications in arable farming.

The Grassland Combi is available in three working widths (2.5 m, 3 m and 4 m) and with 3 different roller types (Cambridge roller Ø 390 mm, Cambridge roller Ø 530 mm and toothed ring roller Ø 410 mm). Under practical conditions, the benefits of simultaneous reseeding of grass using APV seeders together with grassland cultivation implements have also been demonstrated (Pneumatic Seeders and Multi-Metering Systems).

Benefits of the Grassland Combi

Tool-free separation, fixation and assembly of the roller and the harrow
Harrow at the front and roller at the rear achieves improved weight distribution (centre of gravity lies close to the tractor).
Combination of different working steps according to individual needs (levelling, combing out, seeding, combing in and rolling)
Infinitely variable adjustment of the working depth of the roller
Depth, pressure and aggression adjustment of the tines is done in stages via bolts in the hole pattern

GK 250 M1

Lightweight and manoeuvrable - even on steep terrain

The Grassland Combi GK 250 M1 is ideally suited for meadow management, for reseeding and new seeding of grasses, both on level and steep terrain. The sward is optimally cultivated and the seed is directly pressed down by the unique combination of the thick (12 mm) tines and the trailing roller. The GK 250 M1 is also often used for multi-farm operations. On steep terrain or with smaller tractors, there is the option of dividing the Grassland Combi.

Information about
the Grassland Combi

Harrow rows

The harrow has 2 rows with cranked 12 mm (optionally 10mm) tines.
Cranked tines create an elliptical movement on the soil. The steeper the position of the tines, the smaller the motion. The flatter the position of the tines, the larger the motion.
In addition to the depth, the aggressiveness of the tines relative to one another on the GK series can also be changed. To do so, you only have to insert the bolts for the harrow rows as desired in a hole more to the front or the rear.
The crank for the levelling plate can be used to turn the harrow rows more easily.

Levelling plate

Due to the height-adjustable spring-mounted levelling plate, rough unevenness in the grassland is eliminated and the tines are not stressed unnecessarily.
The height is adjusted using two bolts (one on the left and one on the right) in the pattern of holes.
To make adjustment easier, a crank is included as a standard. After removing the bolts, this crank is used to easily raise and lower the levelling plate by means of gear teeth.

Adjustment of the roller

The roller is adjusted by extending or retracting the hydraulic cylinder. If it is completely retracted, the roller is lifted off from the ground and the total weight of the roller is shifted onto the tines. The contact pressure of the harrow rows is increased and the soil is worked more intensively. When the cylinder is extended, the tine pressure is reduced, for lighter harrowing.

Mounting of PS / MD on GK series

Our Grassland Combi GK 250 M1 or GK 300 M1 can be combined with the Pneumatic Seeders PS 120 M1 - PS 300 M1 (with electric or hydraulic fan) and with the Multi-Metering System MDP 100 M1.
For mounting on the GK, the PS / MD can be fastened in two different positions (on the roller or harrow) together with the counter plate. The preliminary setup equipment for mounting the Pneumatic Seeder is included in the Full Edition.
The dispersion plates are fastened on a hollow profile at equal distances relative to each other.
The dispersion plates are mounted on the roller as standard, however, the hollow profile for mounting the dispersion plates can also be installed on the harrow.

Front mounting

The front mounting equipment for the harrow is available as an accessory. The top link rocker and the feeler wheels can be mounted toolfree just using bolts.
Front mounting offers the option of adjusting the contact pressure of the tines while driving using the hydraulic cylinder. (The roller cylinder, which is not in use when the implement is divided, can be used here.)

Divided and combined operation

On steep terrain or with smaller tractors, there is the option of dividing the implement.
All of the working tools can be used individually or in different combinations. They can be divided into a front-mounted or rear-mounted implement.

Erfahrungsbericht über die Grünlandkombi GK von APV

GK 300 M1

Convinced of the loss-free spreading of the seed

Focal points of the farm: Cattle breeding, dairy farming

Country: Austria (AT)

Summary: In order to provide our dairy cows with high-quality, nutrient- and protein-rich forage, early mowing is essential. As this only results in a low seed yield, we purchased the grassland combi to maintain or increase the yield. After three years of use, the machine can no longer be turned away. We are particularly impressed by the loss-free seed placement in all weather conditions, the simple operation and the high quality of the machine.

Mr Eder reports about the GK 300 M1

"We came to this machine, because it is important for us that we have a good stock of grass on our land. So we looked at reviews on Landwirt.com, and then we contacted the distributor in our area and bought the GK. In our area, no one uses such an machine, so we drive with this device also to other farms. "

J. Eder, Farmer

Mr Schödel reports about the WS 300 M1 (Now a part of the GK)

"The Grassland Combi is attached by an Steyr Compact. We use it two times each year, before and after the horses were on the pastures. We can easily cultivate our meadows with it. The meadows for the hay, are harrowed and seeded in spring. We have decided on the pneumatic seeder, because it ensures that the seed is deposited precisely and in a well-distributed manner, even in the case of wind. The combination was chosen for time reasons to do everything at once. "

S. Schödel, Farmer
