Disc Ridgers: Single & Double Row

DESCRIPTION
Disc ridgers in single and double row configurations are designed for forming ridges or furrows for crops such as potatoes, vegetables, and other row-planted crops. These implements typically consist of two or more concave discs that are angled to move soil inward, creating well-defined ridges. Double row models allow for increased productivity by forming two ridges in a single pass, while single row units are suited to smaller operations or tighter field conditions.
Disc diameters generally range from approximately 400 to 600 mm, with adjustable spacing and angles to control ridge width and height. Ridge height can typically be set between about 200 and 500 mm, depending on soil conditions and crop requirements. The discs are mounted on a robust frame designed to withstand regular field use.
Disc ridgers are commonly attached via a three-point linkage and are compatible with tractors in the 15 to 30 horsepower range, depending on size and configuration. With a working weight typically between 200 and 800 kg, they offer stability and effective soil movement. As with most agricultural implements, specifications may vary depending on the manufacturer and configuration.
