Crop height presents a limitation in mechanical weeding, as a low frame height can damage tall crops. The Extract addresses this concern with its design, boasting the market's highest frame height of 80cm, enabling a longer weeding season.

As machines become wider, headland management gains importance. To prevent the inter-row weeder from damaging crops as it enters irregular headlands, the Väderstad Extract features a section lift function. This feature lifts individual rows via GPS to a height of 75cm.
Extract is equipped with 3D cameras, maintaining in-row accuracy by monitoring and guiding 3D images of three rows of plants, allowing the inter-row cultivator to pass as close as 3cm from the main crop. For well-established crops like maize, a mechanical row steering option can be fitted, controlled by two rows of the crop.
The 12-metre Extract L has a frame which can hold two independent 6-metre sections. This enables it to ensure accurate results over two 6-metre planter passes. The machine uses camera technology to guide each section independently thereby eliminating the risk of damaging crops, even if the connection between the planter passes is not 100 percent correct.
With the independent double-frame solution of Extract L, it is thereby possible to increase the working width of the inter-row cultivator, without risking losing precision in one of the planted passes.
"The Väderstad Extract product family stands for versatile and technologically advanced inter-row cultivators, enabling precise and efficient mechanical weeding across various crops. All and all, contributing to sustainable and environmentally friendly farming practices."
