UMS straw chopper in rolls is used in agriculture to chop straw rolls (wheat, barley, oat, rice) harvest residues of rapeseed, soybean,buckwheat, flax, lupine and other crops, it is also possible to purchase a conversion kit for crushing harvest residuescorn andsunflower and thus get a universal unit. Even knives and a system of counter knives ensure high-quality grinding with a length of no more than 2-3 cm. Guides of the crushed mass ensure uniform spreading of the crushed mass up to 6.5 meters. The need for this unit increased with the reduction of livestock in farms, as a result of which straw was no longer harvested for fodder production. In order to clean the fields from it, straw is burned in a number of farms. Undoubtedly, this is harmful to the soil, as it leads to a decrease in soil fertility. Meanwhile, straw is a valuable organic fertilizer containing nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, etc. substances necessary for plant growth. That is why it is economically beneficial not to burn it, but to put it in the soil.
