SUMO Farm Machinery For Sale in United Kingdom

The majority of the cultivation products it produces are designed to be mounted behind a tractor unit, with a range of sizes and specifications available. Founded in the early 1990s, Sumo is a real domestic success story in spite of the fact that its name conjures up images of Japanese wrestling.

The range starts off with the Sumo Trio, a three-part machine that enables the efficient creation of seedbeds on field surfaces. With different models accommodating different working widths, up to a maximum of 3.4 metres, as well as convenient features such as retractable legs and a fully removable frame for ease of transport and storage, this is a popular piece of equipment. It is also compatible with Sumo's seeder kits to allow for processing and planting to take place in a single pass. Similar models, including the trailed rigid Trio, trailed folding Trio and the Quatro are also available from this marque.

Sumo DTS Range

The Sumo DTS is a slightly more advanced machine which harnesses the strip till drilling method, enabling users to prepare consecutive bands of soil for seeding while retaining the integrity of the areas in between. When it comes to speed, this is an appealing approach, while also helping with things such as drainage in addition to minimising the impact of erosion in areas which are prone to it. The DTS can be outfitted with a fertiliser kit to further expand its functionality, with between 9 and 26 rows available depending on the model chosen. Compatibility with GPS will help users to harness the power of this range over large areas.

Sumo Rippa: A Solid Worker

For straightforward soil aeration and agitation, the Sumo Rippa is a suitable choice, working at depths of up to 16 inches so that heavily compacted material can be loosened before planting or after the harvest. With a steel frame and legs, as well as an intelligent folding design, it is practical, portable and durable, which are all things that you will be looking for in agricultural machinery.

Front Weights: Personalise Them

As well as providing machines that are trailed behind tractors, Sumo is also responsible for the manufacture of a versatile Front Weight which can be harnessed to add ballast where it is required and ensure that the load is balanced. Between 1000kg and 2500kg can be added to this piece of equipment, with the added bonus being that less wear and tear will be caused to the vehicle's tyres, making it much more capable of coping with heavy loads. There is even a built-in toolbox as part of this component, with a locking mechanism helping to keep everything safe.

The Front Multipacka and Front Sumo are similarly impressive products, both in terms of design and build quality. Another mainstay of these and the entire Sumo range is adjustability, giving users the means to make changes depending on the circumstances they are facing. In all it is easy to see why Sumo has built up a reputation as a reliable manufacturer of farm machinery with the added benefit of being UK-based.
