Salford’s introduces a revolutionary new tillage tool, the HALO VRT - Variable Rate Tillage. A new tillage machine designed to maintain level operation at high speeds, with adjustable blade angles. This machine is capable of less intensive tillage that goes faster, uses fewer tractor hours and fuel, and will help protect soil structure and prevent erosion. But when a producer needs a more aggressive machine to fill ruts or manage resistant weeds, the HALO VRT can adjust to meet their challenge.
The versatile new HALO VRT is the latest in Salford's HALO series of implements. All three HALO series machines are built on forward folding frames with transport widths below twelve feet. The HALO's frame is hydraulically balanced to produce more level seedbeds at higher speeds than other tillage machines with this frame type. All HALO models are designed for simple operation with multiple maintenance-free features and easy-to-use hydraulic adjustments. The HALO VRT is now available in working widths of 20, 25, 30, 35, and 40 feet.
