Crop intensification, which leverages plastic mulch to control moisture, is the newest trend in the agricultural industry. It’s revolutionizing planting as a whole—much like the Posi-Flow Planting system which has disrupted an entire industry and changed the way it thinks about planting. Read More
Greenhouses are tight and mature nursery stock can be large and difficult to harvest. Which means that, once it’s time to harvest, plants become entangled—making an already labor-intensive process even more so. There needed to be a better way.

To assist farms in China, and in an overall effort to create an all-inclusive ground preparation and planting system for Asian rice paddy practices, Faulring Mechanical Devices created The Agri-Vator System for Plasticulture. By utilizing the latest engine and hydrostatic transmission configurations, this modern-day agricultural system efficiently forms a raised bed, covers it with plastic mulch, and then plants the bed.

The goal of this project was to create a new, automatic planting system to replace a labor-intensive, highly-expensive, inefficient manual labor process—all without affecting the bottom line. The result? A one-of-a-kind, automatic planting system that uniquely plants with precise accuracy and consistency, doesn’t require the assistance of sensors or electronics to singulate plants, and does it all twice as fast with half the labor input.
