Official launch of the CDf and CTf incorporators under the SAMSON & PICHON brands

 Each method of organic fertilizer application offers specific advantages depending on crop type and soil conditions. Whether the goal is to reduce environmental impact through precision application techniques or to improve nutrient absorption by controlled soil work, selecting the right method is essential. In this context, SAMSON AGRO announces the launch of its new CDf and CTf incorporators, now available through both PICHON and SAMSON dealer networks. This dual release marks a new step in the alignment of the group’s product ranges, based on a shared technical foundation and adapted to the specific needs of each brand, all in the service of more efficient and sustainable organic fertilizer application.

Incorporating slurry: a sustainable and effective solution

Incorporating organic fertilizers directly into the soil helps reduce nutrient losses through volatilization and leaching while placing nutrients close to the root zone. This method reduces ammonia emissions by up to 85%, limits odours, and contributes to improved air quality.

A robust and efficient shared design

The CDf and CTf incorporators share a compact and robust design, built from high-strength HLE steel, with ample clearance under the frame to facilitate residue flow. Both models are equipped with the SAMSON vertical distributor, renowned for its precision and reliability, ensuring uniform distribution even with thick slurry, at flow rates of up to 7,500 l/min. A hydraulic folding system with transport lock guarantees safe transport, and an optional hydraulic distributor discharge can be controlled directly from the tractor cab.

CDf: precision incorporation for shallow application

Compatible with 4-point or 3-point Cat-3 hitches, the CDf is designed for controlled, shallow incorporation of slurry. It features two rows of 510 mm serrated discs, arranged in offset positions: the first row opens the soil and injects the slurry for rapid absorption, while the second closes the furrow and mixes the material with crop residues. The discs are mounted in pairs on twin bearings with double-row ball bearings, capable of absorbing loads in both directions and ensuring smooth rotation. A sealed lip ring prevents dust ingress and retains the grease required for lifetime lubrication, eliminating the need for greasing. This design significantly reduces maintenance while ensuring long service life and reliability. The disc suspensions feature rubber silent blocks that ensure optimal ground contour following and limit vibrations, while allowing large quantities of organic matter to pass through. Depth adjustment from 3 to 12 cm is easily achieved via the gauge wheels. With working speeds up to 15 km/h, productivity and durability are ensured in all conditions.

Available options:

• Star-shaped border disc (left), reducing splashing and ensuring a clean finish for each pass and at the edge of the plot.
• Adjustable leveling tines, for closing the furrow and improving surface finish.
• Automatic centralized lubrication system, connected to the tanker’s lubrication circuit, reducing maintenance time.

CTf: incorporation combined with soil preparation

Designed to incorporate slurry while preparing the soil, the CTf is ideal for work on short stubble or ploughed fields. Available in 4.0 m and 6.0 m versions, it combines robustness, performance, and precision. It features two rows of strong tines equipped with reversible hardened steel shares for long service life. The tines incorporate the slurry down to 15 cm depth, while the 33 cm tine spacing ensures smooth flow even in high-residue conditions.
The integrated nozzle behind each tine injects the slurry directly into the furrow, minimizing splashing and ensuring uniform distribution. This direct injection helps reduce nitrogen losses, improve nutrient use efficiency, and minimize odours.
According to fields surveys, slurry incorporation into the soil can reduce volatilization by 70 to 90%. Depth adjustment is manual, controlled via graduated front wheels for easy and precise settings.

Available options:

• Adjustable finishing tines, mounted behind the tine rows, for leveling and closing the furrow. Height and tilt adjustment allow optimal adaptation to soil conditions and residue flow.
• Automatic centralized lubrication system, supplying lubrication to all key points (frame joints, cylinder ball ends, vertical distributor) via the tanker’s pump. This eliminates manual greasing, reduces maintenance time, and enhances operational safety.

Availability and AGRITECHNICA presentation

The CDf and CTf incorporators are now available for order through SAMSON and PICHON dealer networks. They will be showcased on the SAMSON AGRO stand at AGRITECHNICA, in Germany, Hall 23 – Stand A35, from 9 to 15 November 2025.
