Crary Revolution Ditcher - High-Tech Ditching Made Easy

Efficient Ditching Solutions for Land Management

The Crary Revolution Ditcher is a powerful and versatile tool designed to streamline ditching projects. 

This tractor-mounted ditcher features a straight driveline with six mounted paddles that can fling dirt up to 175 feet in either direction. 

Dan Anderson with Crary gave us a rundown of its Revolution Ditcher. 

One of the key features is its auxiliary auger feeder. 

This feeder allows for precise control over material movement, with adjustments up to 12 inches back and forth and 7-8 inches up and down. This feature is particularly helpful when encountering clumps or uneven terrain. 

The system is conveniently controlled from the tractor's cab, allowing for effortless operation. Additionally, the hydraulics are connected to the tractor's existing system for seamless integration. 

For extended durability, the Crary Revolution Ditcher incorporates easily identifiable high wear components. These components, identified by their yellow paint, are designed to be easily replaced, minimizing downtime. 

Another innovative feature is the automatic self-leveling system. Using a slope sensor and computer controls, the ditcher can maintain a consistent level during operation, eliminating the need for manual adjustments. 

The driveline itself is designed for robustness. By featuring a straight design and a clutch protector, the Crary Revolution Ditcher reduces the risk of damage from extreme workloads.

Dr. Colin Hiebert, research scientist with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada – Morden, is focused on developing new tools that wheat breeders can use to improve, diversify and strengthen disease resistance in new wheat varieties. This includes new genomic tools that address resistance to five diseases including: Fusarium head blight, leaf rust, stripe rust, stem rust and common bunt.
