The method of slurry application, in addition to dry matter, soil type and season, impacts the amount of nutrients available to the crop. Dribble Bars also known as band spreaders reduce the surface area of slurry exposed to the atmosphere lowering nutrient losses by as much as 5% in comparison to Spreader Bars (Fertiliser Manual, RB209).
Giving careful consideration to both operating costs and slurry potential Storth have developed a range of fully galvanised Dribble Bars to meet with the most demanding needs of the agricultural market.
The Vertical Fold Dribble Bar incorporates a close coupled central frame design giving narrow transport width as well as the strength to facilitate the optional piggy-back HD female A-frame.
Prior to delivery, slurry is processed by the Vogelsang ExaCut Macerator. This incorporates a simple Storth Lay Flat Hose designed stone trap. Prior to the Macerator, solid galvanised hose is used with the unique Super-X hose transporting slurry down to the ground hugging Lay Flat Hose.
As the name suggests, the Sequence Dribble Bar uses an intuitive folding design enabling compact storage of wider dribble bars. This negates transportation height and width issues generally associated with dribble bars in excess of 8m. The Dribble Bar incorporates a Storth NovaCut Macerator, developed specifically to guarantee consistent distribution. Horizontal 50mm output holes are positioned in the Macerator’s base ensuring consistency despite potential input fluctuations. Super-X Hoses deliver the processed slurry to the field at ground level. Adjustable spring steel stabilisers assist with this process, limiting crop leaf contamination and placing slurry as close to the soil as possible.
