Soil Aerator

An AerWay  Soil Aerator was purchased  with funding from the New Hampshire Association of Conservation Districts  Innovative Demonstration Projects in partnership with the  Natural Resource Conservation Service. Compacted soils  effect soil health in a variety of ways  including limiting normal water infiltration, and limiting plant  root access to nutrients. The aerator will add pores to the soil and loosen compaction without damaging soil structure as often happens with tilling practices. With less compaction, farmers can see an increase in soil  permeability and productivity without using fertilizers, therefore reducing polluted runoff into Great Bay.

Broadcast Seeder Attachment

We also have a broadcast seeder that can be attached to the aerator, so that you can overseed your field while aerating. The soil disturbance from the aerator provides good seed-to-soil contact, while not damaging soil structure as much as conventional tillage. The broadcast seeder manual is online here: https://kascomfg.com/wp-content/uploads/GT-77-ATV-Owners-Manual.pdf
