Kwik Cut by Loftness

Loftness now offers a brush cutter attachment for skid steers and compact track loaders. Featuring a combination of beveled blades and carbide teeth, the new Kwik Cut is designed to slice through grass, weeds, brush and small trees up to 10 inches in diameter with the ability to grind stumps and brush to ground level.

The Kwik Cut’s heavy-duty, 72 in diameter disc is equipped with 4 dual-edge beveled blades, which are designed to retract on severe impact to protect them and other components from damage. The underside of the disc contains 18 carbide teeth for grinding. They are mounted with a single bolt for easy maintenance.

A floating door at the front of the Kwik Cut opens as it is pushed against a tree to expose the blades for improved cutting. When fully opened, the door becomes solid, acting as a tree pusher.

Video: LALEXPERT: Sclerotinia cycle and prophylactic methods

White rot, also known as sclerotinia, is a common agricultural fungal disease caused by various virulent species of Sclerotinia. It initially affects the root system (mycelium) before spreading to the aerial parts through the dissemination of spores.

Sclerotinia is undoubtedly a disease of major economic importance, and very damaging in the event of a heavy attack.

All these attacks come from the primary inoculum stored in the soil: sclerotia. These forms of resistance can survive in the soil for over 10 years, maintaining constant contamination of susceptible host crops, causing symptoms on the crop and replenishing the soil inoculum with new sclerotia.
