Chisel-ploughing the Ndume way means:
- More Acres cultivated with less fuel used.
- Leaves your moisture from the previous season underground – where it should be.
- Moisture penetrates deep down into the soil profile when it rains.
- Eliminates hard pans caused by conventional ploughing.
- Soil erosion is cut down to a minimum.
- Leaves your field in a state that means one harrowing is usually enough for a seed bed.
- Generally crop yields will be increased due to better moisture conservation and soil
conditioning.
