From seed to plant to harvest, the farming process is one full of techniques and machines to ensure
the most bountiful and sustainable harvest possible. Welcome back to another video from
Lord Gizmo! Today, we’ll be looking at some great farming machinery for you to learn more about!

First up, you will discover how Vivaistica D'Andrea produces 4 million rooted grafted vines
per year. The grapevine roots consist of a wood framework that can be regrown into full plants
if dealt with properly. First, the rootstock of vines which exhibit good fruiting characteristics
are selected. These are de-stemmed using machines and cut to a particular length.
Hydration and anti-fungal treatment keep it safe.
Scion, the upper part of the grapevine, goes through the same procedure. After that,
both parts are grafted together and waxed before packing to protect the bud and the graft union.
The prepared grafted vines are put in a temperature and humidity-controlled environment
until the top, root, and callus development fulfill field planting or potting requirements.
These are planted in rows according to the graft lot number. They may be kept in field nurseries
for eight months and are carefully monitored for nutritional levels, pests, and diseases.
The Agromillora Group is a worldwide leader in the nursery sector, producing fruit trees and
olive trees with the highest genetic and health standards. Usually, almond drupes, or the fruiting
bodies of almond trees, grow on deciduous trees ranging from 13 to 33 feet in height. However,
Super High-density almonds developed by the Agromillora Group are raised to 9 feet, which ease
harvesting. Instead of using shakers, sweepers, and collectors separately, Agromillora uses a
single machine to do the job in a single pass. It saves a lot of time, fuel, and money. These
Super High-density almonds are now being grown on 13,000 acres in various parts of the world,
including California, Spain, Italy, Morocco, Chile, Australia, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey.
Next, we have a cotton harvester manufactured by Pamuk. It can harvest
without using detergent or any other fluid and automatically stores the harvested cotton.
This machine enables clean, high speed, and productive cutting with a chain scraping unit.
Its double-row and combined shifting system allow the harvesting of two rows at a time. It
requires a tractor with 75 hp and a category two hanging system. The operator can adjust the line
distance between 60 and 80 cm. Even in the worst conditions, this harvester can move at 15 kph.
Next, we have the Cirrus 6003, a seed cultivator that can plow, sow, and mulch in a single pass.
It is known for delivering superb quality of work. The unit has colter discs at the
front which rip up the earth, while the till disc moves the soil in the seed row.
The seed comes from its 4,000 liter hopper, which is available with a multi-chamber for
sowing different seed types in one go. Lastly, its rear colter unit exerts 100 kg of pressure,
planting precisely at high forward speed. The Cirrus 6003 provides a working width of 3 to 6 m
and can also be equipped with different disc types and equipment according to the soil conditions.
Next, we have the Red Viper from Zimmerman. It is a manure injector designed for both
low and high-gallon users. It is capable of 20,000+ GPa, injecting manure with
maximum nutrient intake while causing minimal damage to the soil.
Its colter discs keep the machine from clogging in moist or heavy residual dirt. The red viper
features individual row swivels, 10" of hydro flex travel, and heavy-duty greaseless bearings. Its
closer wheels can be adjusted to provide better down pressure. Thanks to its dragline unit,
manuring is now possible without a tanker. It keeps the hosepipe away from the tractor's path.
Last but not least, we have the Contour King ST. It was developed to manage residue without
destructive tillage. It improves efficiency during the early stages of plant development
while reducing environmental impact. You can attach it to a tank or drag toolbars.
It features a 3/8" wall, 7x7 tubing, and a wing hinge on a 2 1/2" pin.
To prevent corrosion, all of its components are coated with chemical-resistant powder.
In short, it's the best berm builder on the market, eliminating the challenges of compaction
and high-residue environments that result in uneven seedling emergence.
