Suenaert Pieter BVBA - Masters in Modern Sowing Techniques
What sets Suenaert apart from other companies is their ability to carry out the entire process in a single pass. From West Flanders to Hainaut, they work on soils ranging from pure sand to heavy loam. Everything is spudded until the potatoes are sown, after which the soil is plowed once to bring the deeper soil to the surface.
"The biggest advantage of the spading machine? The organic matter is evenly distributed throughout the soil. This contributes to healthy and fertile soil, which is essential for successful crops."
Another advantage of spading is that it works better in dry conditions, allowing plants to root better than with plowing. But even when it is too wet for plowing, Suenaert can still use the spading machine. This makes them unique and gives them an unrivalled competitive advantage.
An important aspect of the spading process is timing: in the fall, the soil is loosened to dry, while in the spring everything is firmly pressed down. This approach not only promotes crop growth, but also the health of the soil itself.
"I only see advantages to the spading machine. The biggest advantage is that the organic matter is mixed throughout the soil."
But Suenaert doesn't stop there. They have also discovered that threshed corn can be dug in perfectly, allowing it to serve as organic matter and be made available for future crops. With their modern machines, such as the 48 and 58, they can work quickly without compromising on quality.
In short, Suenaert Pieter BVBA has proven that spading is a better option than plowing. Their ability to enable sowing under all conditions has made them masters in their field. With their focus on healthy soils and successful crops, they remain at the forefront of the contract farming and arable farming sector.
