Mechanical weeder TARGA

tractor-mounted

Overview
The Rotative weeder TARGA is a mechanical weeding implement available in 6 m and 12 m working widths (12 m convertible to 6 m). Designed for precise mechanical weed control and crust removal, the TARGA combines independent 1.50 m sections for optimal ground following with a heavy frame and double central rotors for complete coverage.

Key features

• Available working widths: 6 m and 12 m (12 m configurable to 6 m)
• Independent 1.50 m sections for optimal ground following
• High under-frame clearance to operate on residues and around stones
• Double central rotors as standard for overlapping coverage
• Robust heavy frame providing strong penetration (crust removal)

Advantages

• Continuous hydraulic pressure adjustment (tractor-controlled) for each rotor
• Rotors assembled in V to balance lateral efforts
• Rotor dimensions: Ø 500 mm, wire Ø 7 mm
• Spacing between rotors: 15 cm
• Independent rotors and left/right decoupling as standard
• Adaptable to a wide range of crops
• Operates effectively in presence of plant residues and stones
• Effective removal of surface crust in varied field conditions

Operation / Use
Pressure can be adjusted from 0 to 25 kg per rotor (manual as standard; continuous hydraulic adjustment available). Working height is set with a depth-control wheel. The machine mounts on a CAT 3 hitch and benefits from large under-frame clearance to work on residues; a double central rotor improves field coverage and consistency.

Gallery & media
Photographs and zooms on rotors, wheels and assemblies illustrate design and working behaviour. Demonstration videos show rotor flexibility, pressure adjustment and field performance of the TARGA in different crop conditions.
