The BSM 3Z row crop cultivator and ridger is designed for agricultural tractors from 20HP to 55HP. It is suitable for inter-row cultivation, soil loosening, furrowing, weeding and ridging in fields planted with corn, soybean, cotton, sweet potato and other row crops.
The 3Z series adopts a three-point mounted structure for convenient connection with compatible agricultural tractors. Adjustable row spacing allows the machine to match different crop planting patterns and field requirements.
Three models are available: 3Z-2, 3Z-3 and 3Z-4. The working width ranges from 1500mm to 3700mm, with 3 to 5 cultivation rows and 2 to 4 ridging rows.
During operation, the working tips enter the soil between crop rows to loosen the surface layer, remove weeds and improve soil aeration. Depending on the selected setup, the rear working sections can also form ridges or open furrows.
The row spacing can be adjusted from approximately 450mm to 600mm. This makes the cultivator suitable for different crop spacing, tractor wheel tracks and regional planting methods.

The cultivator can loosen soil, remove weeds and form ridges between corn rows. The working units should be adjusted according to the corn planting distance.
Inter-row cultivation helps control weeds, loosen compacted soil and improve air circulation around soybean roots.
The adjustable row spacing makes the machine suitable for cotton fields with different planting layouts.
The ridging function can be used to prepare or maintain raised beds for sweet potato cultivation.
Tractor selection should consider engine power, rear lifting capacity, tractor wheel track, crop row spacing and field conditions. The tractor tires must remain outside the crop rows during operation.
Before field work, the spacing between the working units should be adjusted according to the actual planting rows. Adequate clearance should be maintained to avoid damaging crop roots and plants.
For uneven or hard soil, the operating speed should be reduced to maintain stable working depth and avoid excessive impact on the frame.
