AMTEC proudly stocks a diverse range of HE-VA subsoiler, cultivators and presses as a part of our comprehensive new and second-hand farm machinery range. Our selection includes the highly sought-after HE-VA stealth subsoiler models, renowned for their exceptional quality and performance in soil management.
The HE-VA brand is renowned for their exceptional quality and performance in soil management. They're particularly useful for minimal-tillage operations, offering many benefits to farmers looking to improve soil health and crop yields.
The Classic range is built for heavy-duty use, perfect for farms dealing with severe compaction or heavy clay soils. With an adjustable working depth up to 500mm, these subsoilers can tackle even the most challenging soil conditions. Key features of the Classic range include robust hardened steel legs, an optional rear roller for soil consolidation, and a hydraulic folding mechanism for easy transport. The shear-bolt leg protection ensures longevity and reliability, even in tough conditions.
Farmers using the Classic range report significant improvements in soil structure, enhanced drainage, and better root penetration. This leads to healthier crops and improved yields, particularly in areas prone to waterlogging.
The Stealth range represents the cutting edge of low-disturbance subsoiling technology. Designed for farms practising conservation agriculture or those looking to minimise surface disruption, these subsoilers offer a perfect balance of performance and soil preservation.
With its streamlined profile and low-disturbance leg design, the Stealth range requires less draft power, improving fuel efficiency. The tungsten carbide-protected wearing parts ensure long-lasting performance, while the hydraulic auto-reset leg protection system allows for continuous operation even in variable soil conditions.
One of the standout features of the Stealth range is its compatibility with precision farming systems. This allows for targeted subsoiling, addressing specific problem areas in your fields without unnecessary disturbance to well-structured soil.
When selecting between the Classic and Stealth ranges, consider your soil type, crop rotation, and conservation goals. The Classic range excels in heavy, clay-rich soils that require deep loosening, while the Stealth range is ideal for lighter soils or farms prioritising minimal surface disturbance.
For farms managing delicate root crops or practising direct drilling, the low-disturbance Stealth range often proves to be the better choice. However, if you're dealing with severe compaction issues, the robust Classic range might be more suitable.
Both the Classic and Stealth ranges excel at minimising soil compaction, improving drainage, and enhancing root development. By creating fissures in the soil profile, these subsoilers enhance water infiltration and reduce waterlogging. This is particularly beneficial in areas prone to heavy rainfall or on fields with poor drainage.
The improved soil structure from using a subsoiler allows for better root penetration. This leads to improved nutrient uptake and more resilient crops, especially during dry spells. Many farmers report seeing the benefits of subsoiling not just in the current season, but in improved soil health and crop performance over several years.
HE-VA subsoilers are built to last, but proper maintenance is key to ensuring long-term performance. Regularly checking and replacing wearing parts, greasing all lubrication points as per the manufacturer's recommendations, and inspecting hydraulic systems for leaks or damage. Storing the implement under cover when not in use will protect it against weather damage and extend its lifespan.
To get the most out of your HE-VA subsoiler, timing is crucial. Subsoil when soil conditions are right – neither too wet nor too dry. Work at the minimum depth necessary to alleviate compaction, saving fuel and reducing wear. Consider pairing your subsoiler with a roller or seeder to combine operations, saving time.
