Roller

The roller is an agricultural tool primarily used to smooth and compact the soil in preparation for seeding or planting. It is a simple yet highly effective machine in agriculture, typically used after plowing and harrowing to break up clumps of soil and level the field.
Features and Benefits
Soil Compaction: The roller helps compact the topsoil, allowing for an even distribution of moisture in the soil, which is beneficial for seed germination.
Water Conservation: By pressing the soil, the roller reduces excessive evaporation, retaining more water in the soil.
Improved Traction and Soil Preparation: It stabilizes the soil, reducing erosion and making the field more accessible for agricultural machinery.
Usage and Operation
The roller is typically pulled by a tractor and features a sturdy frame that allows considerable pressure to be applied to the soil. Its weight varies, and some models are equipped with systems that allow for weight adjustment according to soil conditions and the type of work required.
The roller is essential for preparing well-compacted, uniform, and well-hydrated soil, ensuring efficient seeding and optimal crop development.
