Standardized market gardening

This two-wheel tractor is perfectly suited to our 75 cm wide standardized system. It’s a major advantage: the implements developed for the BCS match our market gardening standard, and every component works seamlessly with the rest of the toolkit.

BCS two-wheel tractor and its soil-working implements

With a BCS two-wheel tractor, you benefit from an ecosystem of interchangeable implements: power harrow, rotary plough, flail mower, sickle bar.

This modularity allows you to invest gradually, according to the farm's needs.

The power harrow: essential surface work

The power harrow is an indispensable tool for soil work. It differs from a rotavator because it works the soil very superficially — about 5 to 8 cm. This creates an ideal seedbed without working too deep, in order to preserve soil life.

Conversely, the rotavator disturbs and mixes the different soil layers, which can have a negative impact on structure and microbial life. The power harrow, on the other hand, preserves soil structure — essential for sustainable agricultural productivity.

The rotary plough to create our beds

The rotary plough is indispensable when our beds need to be reshaped. Used in the walking path, it puts soil back onto the bed.

A single back-and-forth pass is enough: this is how our beds are created. They end up slightly raised, which makes subsequent maintenance easier.

Even though the BCS is only used for a few hours a year, it is an essential element on the farm. The time we spend using it pays off extremely well: it saves us considerable time and significantly improves our efficiency in the long term.
