Strip-tilling fractures compacted soil, causing the soil to warm more quickly. And since strip-till does not wear down or dry out soil like conventional methods, it encourages natural organic matter to build up, boosting the rate of water infiltration and resulting in healthier, nutrient-rich soil. Strip-tilled fields absorb water much more quickly and retain it at a considerably higher rate. Backed by 20 years of experience manufacturing products for strip-till, the 2984 Maverick™ HR Plus® facilitates precise nutrient placement and produces huge savings in terms of time, water, equipment, and fuel costs.
