    FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

    Why is inter-row management in olive groves different from other orchards?

    Olive trees have specific characteristics: often very wide row spacings, frequently stony and hilly terrain, and a shallow root system sensitive to deep tillage. These features require machines with precise feelers, tiltable heads and anti-stone systems to operate safely.

    How can mechanical weeding be carried out in a stony olive grove?

    The DB11 automatic inter-stump disc is particularly suited to the stony soils typical of olive groves: it uses discs to move the soil and form small clods, allowing the stump to breathe without risk of stone damage. The head tilts up to ±30° for uniform operation even on irregular surfaces.

    How does the RF 130-40 mower work for olive groves?

    The RF 130-40 is a rear mower with inter-row head that cleans both the row and inter-row in a single pass, combining a wire trimmer and blades for two simultaneous operations. It features adjustable inclination and an automatic electro-hydraulic feeler, and is available in two versions – 130-70 cm and 150-70 cm – suited to different olive grove row spacings.

    What is the difference between the RS-PV and RF 130-40 for grass management in olive groves?

    The RS-PV is a variable rear mower with hydraulic blade opening, ideal for sloping terrain thanks to its height-adjustable wheels. The RF 130-40 adds an inter-row head that also works around the stump in a single pass. The choice depends on row spacing and whether inter-stump work is also required.

    How can olive tree stumps be scalped correctly without damaging them?

    The AB6 automatic inter-stump scalping plough is designed to scalp stumps even in the most difficult soils, with an automatic system for fast and effective operations. Mounted on the reinforced BFM Italy frame, it can be combined with the tiller and other accessories, making it versatile for the varied conditions of olive groves.

    Does inter-row tillage in olive groves improve olive quality?

    Yes. Well-tilled soil with good permeability improves water drainage, reduces the risk of waterlogging harmful to roots and optimises nutrient absorption. These factors directly translate into healthier plant growth and higher-quality olive production.

    Do BFM Italy olive grove machines work on steep sloping terrain?

    Yes. All BFM Italy inter-row machines feature working heads that tilt up to ±30°, allowing operation on the slopes typical of hilly and terraced olive groves. The RS-PV mower also has height-adjustable wheels specifically designed for sloping terrain.

    How to choose the right BFM Italy machine for your olive grove?

    The main factors to consider are: row spacing, soil type (stony, clay, hilly), olive grove size and operations required. The B1 is suitable for olive groves up to 15 hectares, the B3 for larger areas, while the AB9 is ideal for fast shallow operations. BFM Italy offers a custom design service to find the optimal solution.
