FPM
FPM Rear Mounted Mulcher
FPM rear-mounted agricultural mulchers are heavy-duty machines designed for shredding grass, weeds and crop residues following harvest. Available in 2.3 m and 2.8 m working widths, they are suitable for maintaining farmland, stubble, neglected ground and other uncultivated areas.
A high-speed, electronically balanced rotor provides efficient shredding with reduced vibration. The mulched material breaks down into organic matter, helping improve soil structure and reduce the volume of crop residue remaining on the surface.
