So-called eco ploughing is hot in the Netherlands. This means ploughing at reduced depths with specially developed ploughs. The furrow width is smaller and the mouldboards are shaped differently. Dutch company Koeckhoven.net is importer for the Spanish-build Ovlac ploughs. This latest Eco-JK model is developed by the company itself.
The first 10 furrow model is working in the Dutch polders with a New Holland T7.270 Blue Power on Zuidberg tracks. The plough is fitted with skimmers which is a novelty as well. Ploughing depth in this case is around 22cm but usually the working depth doesn't exceed 15-17cm. 30cm is normal with conventional ploughs. The furrow width is adjustable from 31,5 to 35cm. It is ploughing 315cm wide here which is the exact width of the tractor.
