Soil Wealth Integrated Crop Protection
The Ripper Mulcher In Tasmania
Soil Wealth and Integrated Crop Protection, a Hort Innovation project, presents an exploration of a unique machine, the ripper mulcher. Invented and built in Tasmania by Bill Cotching to control erosion on sloping ground under cultivation. The ripper mulcher is one of the soil health tools being used by Harvest Moon, an intensive vegetable production business in north west Tasmania.
This project has been funded by Hort Innovation using the vegetable research and development levy and contributions from the Australian Government. Hort Innovation is the grower-owned, not-for-profit research and development corporation for Australian horticulture
