Wide span vehicle systems, like the Nexat project or gantry tractors, are a specialized type of farming vehicle that significantly exceeds the width of typical vehicles. The primary purpose behind using wide span vehicles in agriculture is to minimize soil damage caused by farm vehicles. Efficient soil management and reduced compaction lead to better crop yields and financial gains.
Other key advantages of employing wide span vehicles in farming: help maintain soil structure and health; minimize land lost to wheel tracks, preserving more usable land for cultivation; reduced fuel consumption due to optimized routes; more accurate chemical application; minimizing soil disturbance creates additional opportunities for organic farming practices. These benefits contribute to sustainable and efficient agricultural practices, enhancing both productivity and environmental stewardship.
Future WSVS implement packages are planned.
