Unverferth Zone-Builder Deep Ripper Model 132 7‑Shank

Like roots in a too-small container, your performance would be less than its best if you had to live and work each day in such cramped spaces. Yields suffer when compaction keeps roots from growing freely into the subsoil for optimum nutrient and water uptake. The Zone-Builder® subsoiler from Unverferth lets plants stretch their legs (and their roots) by opening passageways through the hardpan with minimal surface disruption. Long-term university research confirms deep-tilling with tools such as the Zone-Builder implement raise yields and income.

The Difference is obvious

Comparison on Farm in the same paddock

2024 season / Winter Canola / High rainfall Zone Clunes Victoria

Canola Flowering

In 2024 we dug pits to asses the differences in root establishment and growth in long season canola with a farmer who owns a zone builder (6 Shank 122) the paddock was ripped then cultivated with a speed disc prior to sowing.

  • Sown with a Bourgault Parrellelogram knife point press wheel
  • Both plants are from the same paddock with the same paddock history
  • The farmer noticed a large difference in plants early in the season prior to stem elongation and flowering
  • Once at flowering stage the difference above the ground was only slight

Underneath, the difference was obvious.

“If it wasn’t ripped, we’d be totally stuffed.”

– David, Keith SA (2024)
