Dry-Land Briefing for Distributors
For power tiller work in dry-land cultivation, soil resistance, desired result, daily workload, row spacing, working width and equipment need determine how M80 and GN12 / GN15 should be compared.
01 / Why Dry Land Is Not One Workload
Dry-land requests can range from lighter surface preparation to work in compacted, dry or stony soil. Before recommending a platform, establish the soil condition and moisture at the time of work, the required cultivation result, working depth where relevant, expected frequency and daily workload, row or access limits and the intended rotary or plough package.
02 / Dry-Land Selection Inputs
Describe whether the soil is loose, light, compacted, very dry, moist or stony when work begins, including any previous preparation that changes the expected load.
State the task, desired finish or working depth where relevant, number of operations, frequency and expected daily area rather than requesting horsepower alone.
Provide the entrance and row spacing, turning area, preferred working width, rotary or plough requirement and any wheel setup that must enter the quotation.
03 / M80 or GN12 / GN15?
When access, width and lighter handling lead
Review M80 for smaller or fragmented dry-land plots where access, turning and adaptable working width matter. Its documented basis includes a 179 kg chassis without engine, 7–10 HP compatible range and 480 / 600 mm rotary-width choices; engine, wheels and implements must match the actual soil and task.
See M80 dry-land considerations →When sustained load and a heavier platform lead
Review the GN12 / GN15 platform family when soil resistance, daily workload, traction or multi-task use point toward a heavier structural base. Its documented GN12 basis includes a 470 kg structure without engine, iron gearbox, RT125DI at 12.5 HP maximum and a 600 mm rotary configuration; these facts do not guarantee performance in every compacted or stony soil.
See GN12 / GN15 dry-land considerations →This page is a procurement selection guide, not an operating instruction or a universal performance, suitability or safety guarantee. Confirm the actual soil, moisture, stones or obstacles, terrain, required result, working practice, wheel and implement compatibility, operator requirements and final configuration before purchase or use.
Ready to Describe the Actual Workload?
Share the destination country, customer type, soil and moisture condition, previous field preparation, plot and row dimensions, entrance and turning limits, required job and result, working depth where relevant, frequency and daily area, preferred engine, starting method, wheel setup, working width and implement, quantity and packing requirements.
