  • How AerWorx Aerators Work | AerWorx

    How Aerworx Aerators work to improve your soil's water capture & retention and ultimately productivity. How AerWorx Aerators Work LIGHTWEIGHT MACHINES WON'T PENETRATE OR HAVE THE WEIGHT FOR THE ENERGY NEEDED! **THE AERWORX AERATOR IS DESIGNED TO MEET THIS GOAL** How does the Aerworx Aerator work? "SLOT & SHATTER" By slotting and shattering the compacted subsoil at speed with an aerator of appropriate weight and design, soil friability and permeability will be improved. The kinetic energy resulting from the weight and speed of the bladed aerator on a single pass will cause this shattering effect whilst the penetrating slits allow the ingress of water without exposing the soil. Weight + speed = kinetic energy = NO TILL SHATTER Aerating through the summer months and into the autumn when the soil is dry will fracture and break up the compaction leaving air pockets within the soil. These air pockets will hold oxygen allowing micro-organisms and worms to thrive. The more air pockets you can create the more sponge-like the soil becomes, allowing better water retention, deeper, stronger root development, and ultimately stronger and more productive. In the winter months these air pockets will allow the frosts to go deeper and create natural movement within the soil. In contrast these air pockets will warm up quicker in the spring giving you faster growth. In addition to the soil benefits of the no-till application, hay fields can still be worked while leaving them smooth; livestock can remain in worked fields; grass roots remain down – not exposed to sunlight; In the past… Grassland aeration has traditionally been done using conventional lightweight aerators in the spring when the soil is still wet to allow the machines to penetrate. Work rates are slow and the heaviest pieces of concrete or metal from the farmyard are used to ballast the frames of the machines. We promote the heavier and faster you use the machine, the drier and harder the soil, the better the job you will do. How to get the best from your Aerworx To understand the concept of the Aerworx aerator, it’s important that we understand the fundamentals of soil structure. What is soil structure? Soil particles are cemented by humus, glues made by bacteria and fungi, decomposing organic matter and long chain sugars excreted from roots. Interwoven are fungal hyphae and fine roots that stabilise the "aggregate" like a fine mesh. In between are the large pore spaces important for aeration, permeability and retention. Compaction occurs when the forces of e.g. farm traffic, animals, humans are greater than those forces cementing the aggregate together. So when we need to address compaction, it's easy to understand why a no till approach is needed to preserve the vital underground infrastructure and preserve carbon stores. We need to care for our soils with minimal disturbance in order to preserve some of its most valuable qualities. It is a living asset! WHY AERWORX? The build quality of the machines is inherited from the States where the machines are used to clear scrub land, woodland fire breaks and aerate some of the toughest farmland in areas such as Texas and North Dakota. They are used by some of the toughest cowboys - down-time is not an option when hundreds of miles away on a ranch. Strength without disturbance - our blades Manufactured to exceptional standards with blades, unique to Aerworx, excelling in their durability and strength, offering a good return on investment. The blades are manufactured by one of Europe’s leading companies of "wearing parts" here in the UK. The design and strength of the blades have been widely acknowledged for their long lasting durability - so much so that the manufacturer’s exclusive supply to Aerworx extends to its American counterpart, who import all their blades for all of their aerators from the UK. Arranged in a spiral/chevron pattern around the drum and facing the direction of travel, the blades’ angle of entry and exit has been carefully calculated to avoid surface disturbance. The heavy drum ensures any stones are pressed below the surface, avoiding the need for a further pass from a flat-roller. Martin Whittaker, Farmer 30cm Low Maintenance Made from a specific steel, the blades are capable of working in all conditions from heavy clays to rocky brash. even then, they have an exceptionally long life expectancy and, thanks to their angle of entry and exit, are self sharpening. The Aerworx aerator can be used in all soil types – from sandy to heavy clay to rocky – from flawless hayfields to rugged terrains. It enables producers to get the most of the soil that they have Given the durability of the product, it is no surprise that with the UK sales of 100s of machines, over nearly two decades, we have only had to make small repairs to blades on a handful of machines. By one farmer’s admission, this is usually the result of error or extreme use! Full Impact The hard wearing blades aerate the topsoil to a depth of 175mm (7in). The percussive effect of the blades has an even deeper impact, fracturing the subsoil down to depths of 300mm (12in) This means aeration should be done when the ground is hard and dry, to ensure a deep shattering effect, not when the soil is soft or wet, which can often result in smearing and inadvertent damage. Solid axles running through the entire drum reduces shock and vibration to the rest of the machine and the driver. Drum bracing to the end plates stops any flexing and in turn stops the drums breaking up around the axles. These machines are aerators built for the toughest conditions at the highest of speeds ... not rollers with blades welded to them! High work rates Running at speeds of between 10-16kph (6-10mph), a 3m version will cover over 3ha/hour (8acres/hour). In fact, the faster you run the machines the better the fracture of the soil. Striking dry or hard ground quickly will give a better release of kinetic energy within the soil and result in a bigger fracture. High weight per metre Ranging in weight from 1150kg to 5000kg, AerWorx aerators offer by far the greatest weight per metre of any machine on the market. By water ballasting the main drum, all the weight is self-contained and directly above the blades, blade penetration is maximised in all conditions, from hard- baked clays to the stoniest of soils. This means aeration can be done at the optimum time to ensure a deep shattering effect, not when the soil is soft or wet which can often result in smearing. Anchor why aerwox Evidence Trials A year long grassland trial (Aug 25 - Aug 26) was conducted to see if the efficacy of 6 soil applicants was affected when applied on to soils that had had compaction alleviated by AerWorx. The trial has been extended to analyse drought recovery but click the tab below for preliminary findings.

The second photo was cut the same time as the first. the difference being it was aerated the previous autumn with one of our machines. The grass is much further ahead of the non-aerated pasture. the roots are deeper and the DM/acre higher Case study 2 Grass treated with AerWorx prior to an equestrian event during the summer of 2026. The grass was AerWorx'd at the end of the drought, just before the rains arrived. It is clear to see the difference in the recovery between the grass untreated v AerWorx Credit: PJM AGRI LTD - E. England distributor Case Study 3 This photo is of a pasture that we divided in to two - we aerated half of it straight after first cut silage. There is a visible line 7 days after aeration which shows better growth of grass than non-aerated. Case Study 4 Picture A shows compacted soil: large angular block like aggregates a closed structure rather than open and porous limited water/ applicant penetration via horizontal lines reduction in oxygen entry a stressed crop whose roots can’t easily penetrate the “pan”. poorly bound structure and limited nutrient availability resulting in poor grass growth Picture B shows the same soil straight after aeration. The soil is less blocky, is loose and friable. Vertical fractures are now visible and any water, applicants and oxygen can travel around the roots. This fracture can only be achieved when the ground is hard or dry and with machines that are heavy enough to penetrate the hard soil at speed, the Aerworx aerator. Picture C was taken from the same pasture, approximately 3 weeks after aeration. The root structure has improved and fresh root growth is searching deeper.....

  • Grassland Aerators and Double Direct Seed Drills - Aerworx

    The AerWorx Grassland Aerator, of large drum + blade design, is designed to alleviate compaction up to 30cm, opening up soil structure & improving soil health. Addresses water logging, run off, soil erosion & releasing nutrients, oxygen and water for grass growth. Suitable for livestock & equestrian fields, turf ( polo / racing / eventing etc) , sports fields, golf courses, airfields, orchards, vineyards. Complementing the aerators, the Aerworx Double Direct Seed Drill is now part of our range. Aerworx Where Healthy Soils Begin.... ABOUT The Original UK Large Drum and Blade Aerator Why Aerate? Whether you are a livestock or arable farmer, AerWorx Aerators are an essential component in the regeneration of your soil, particularly if it is already compacted, as a lot of UK soils are. By alleviating compaction, you are building in soil resilience to the extreme weather events we are seeing: capturing as much rain as possible during the wetter months and retaining water for the periods of dry weather as a resource for continual plant growth, all whilst providing the optimal environment for soil biology to thrive. The importance of the interaction between soil structure - biology - chemistry of our soils is now widely recognised, and as this balance restores, the need for synthetic inputs reduces and the effects of these of extreme weather events becomes less. Other applications include equestrian paddock management; equestrian competition grass surfaces; airfields, golf courses, sports fields, estate grounds, vineyards, orchards and grass car park maintenance. .....or just about anywhere where there is compacted ground! By fracturing your subsoil up to 30cm you will improve soil health creating that essential porous environment resulting in: improved water penetration and retention, preventing run off and water logging, [ Infiltration rates increase by over 72% *] improved oxygenation of the soil to help soil biology ( microbes and worms), required for the break down of organic matter and releasing nutrients for plant growth improved root growth that doesn't have to struggle through a hard pan in dry, oxygen and nutrient deprived conditions. This ultimately results in: resilience against waterlogging, erosion, run off, drought, increased grass yields [ Dry matter yield increased x 24 for aerated grassland compared to non aerated grassland *] increased grazing periods reduction in fertiliser costs any supporting applications that are req uired are retained in your soil and not wasted in run off "Slot & Shatter" with Aerworx More about compaction * Click here for results of Trial 2024 Click here for more about aeration How?

Blenheim Palace “We chose the Aerworx aerator to de compact and stimulate grass to grow on permanent pasture parklands within the World Heritage site without damaging the surface. We not only use it on grassland before and after events but also on fields across the estate which suffer from years of compaction and poor root structure. Its simplicity, the ability to alter the weight of the machine to suit soil conditions and high work rates make it an extremely flexible and effective tool.” Roy Cox – Rural Enterprises Manager The Garlic Farm "Good design. Good service. Good price. Usually you never get more than two of these attributes for a product, but with Aerworx you get all three. The aerator has an immediate effect on infiltration around the entry points and over time we are seeing massive improvements to pasture health by using this alongside mob-grazing." Barnaby Edwards, Director Blaber Enterprises Blaber Enterprises are specialist small bale producers in Hampshire for the Equine industry. “I’m just of the opinion that our weather patterns are going to remain unpredictable, so we have wanted a machine that could limit that unpredictability. With the Aerworx aerator we are encouraging root depth for dry conditions and soil structure improvement dissipates water during deluges.

  • AerWorx attends North East Cotswolds Farmer Cluster Day | AerWorx

    < Back AerWorx attends North East Cotswolds Farmer Cluster Day ☀️When a day feels extraordinary for so many reasons. An invite to the North East Cotswolds Farm Cluster trade fair was one not to be missed. Hosted at the picturesque location and hospitable team @realfarmed we displayed the A336 alongside visuals to show the benefits of alleviating compaction using the slot and shatter effect of Aerworx. Incredible talks were presented throughout the day but with a feeling that something really big was unfolding around us…. Industry issues were raised but refreshing tangible solutions offered up by the inspiring keynote speaker, Minette Batters. A national collaboration between cluster groups were recognised as a vital step in the next farming chapter as well as soil health benchmarking in order to form a baseline for plans. Funding and recent gov policy updates, with a light shone on the Evenlode Landscape Recovery Project, were discussed with clear emphasis that the industry needed to design its own sustainable path. We had fascinating and insightful conversations on the stand with many at the sharp end of this energised regenerative transition- many of whom we hope to work with in the future as our soil goals align and restoration of national soil health a shared ambition. Thank you to all who ventured outside to see us as we endured four seasons in one day! Thank goodness for the FarmEd brownies! Thank you to Caroline Greenwood and Sarah Gordon - Jones for all their fantastic organisational skills and for making us all feel so welcome! And to @ pjm.agri.ltd for helping us on the stand! https://video.wixstatic.com/video/eed273_1d5fc85f99034fc5932bf27726b440da/1080p/mp4/file.mp4 AerWorx at FarmEd - North East Cotswolds Farm Cluster day https://video.wixstatic.com/video/eed273_04d290803cc94bd9a0d0610de1ad04c7/1080p/mp4/file.mp4 Minette Batters addressing the importance of soil health When you leave feeling inspired and positive knowing that so much good work is being done out there… Previous Next

  • FERTILISER - THE BIG Q! | AerWorx

    < Back FERTILISER - THE BIG Q! 💰FERTILISER - THE BIG Q. As fertiliser costs soar and availability has many anxious about how they will continue to support yields, may be now is the time to sense check that ol' phrase: 🧐" we've always done it like that" . The soil often has all that you need - it just needs unlocking over a sensible time line. 👉O2 is free; Atmospheric N2 is free; rain is free too ...so how can we tap in to that? ✅ Improve soil structure 🔨 = Soil biology should follow🪱 - the underground fert spreaders = Drought resistance improves by increasing capture and retention of rainfall💧 = reduction on the reliance of short term synthetics that cause long term reversal of the above (see below)❗ How? Alleviating soil compaction can reduce fertiliser requirements quite noticeably—but the exact amount depends on how severe the compaction was, your soil type, and how well it’s corrected...and then managed. Why? - increased root depths 🌱 - Increased nutrient access as soil biology gets to work mineralising PK that is already present but locked up - use natural nitrogen from the air to create a form of accessible nitrogen for the plant = reduce the need for fertiliser💨 - reduce application rates by REDUCING WASTE - any fert that is applied can get to the root zone and doesnt run off ( up to 60% can run off compacted soils). 🔰AERATION DOESN'T REPLACE FERTILISER - IT MAKES YOUR SOIL SO MUCH BETTER AT USING NUTRIENTS SO YOU NEED LESS OF IT! EXAMPLE: In a grassland setting on a challenging clay base, a reduction in ~ 20 % of fertiliser usage is widely used figure post aeration. This figure may be higher if the soil has good organic matter and good grazing management. 💰What does that mean in terms of fert savings? If grassland typically uses fert at 200Kg N/ha/yr = saving of 40 Kg N/ha/yr . At £1.20/Kg N = over £48/ha/yr ( At today's price even higher e.g at £1.54/Kg N = £62/ha! ) 🐄In a dairy setting if we also consider : - a conservative grass yield increase post aeration of 10% DM ( (each cow getting extra 600- 1000kg DM / yr ) - increased grazing days = less bought in forage/ bedding costs -increased milk yield - reduction in grass loss through poaching - less the cost of aeration = a conservative estimate of £100/ cow /yr gain = £10k for a 100 head herd per year. ( stocking rate 2.5/ha) So mechanical intervention to break the cycle of compaction speaks for itself. Shattering the pan and opening up the soils optimises returns ...for the long term. The Slot and Shatter of AerWorx does exactly that, with minimal surface disruption to minimise soil contamination and evaporative and carbon losses. So when it comes to thinking about investing in your soil ....the question is: 🤔CAN YOU AFFORD NOT TO? 16.04.26 Previous Next

  • Feature on Lydney Park Farm - an AHDB Strategic Dairy Farm Network member | AerWorx

    < Back Feature on Lydney Park Farm - an AHDB Strategic Dairy Farm Network member Last week Aerworx visited Lydney Park Farm.... As recently featured in Farmers Weekly, Gavin Green and Keith Davis of Lydney Park Farm, Glos, certainly have their fingers on the pulse when it comes to grassland management. Speaking to Keith Davis, dairy manager, they routinely monitor DM yields across their milking platform of 300ha, ranking paddocks and creating a strategic plan to drive the productivity of their 850 Jersey crosses. They already had impressive above average yields of between 10-15 t/ha DM but knew that they could improve this further - optimising soil health was an important part of their strategic plan. " Grass can cope in winter when not grazed but when actively growing in spring, 3-4 days of standing water kills it" ( Keith Davis). Lydney Park recognised the impact that compaction was having across the farm and recently upgraded to the aerator of their choice.... t he Aerworx A336s . It is no surprise that this dynamic team is part of the AHDB Strategic Dairy Farm network and here at Aerworx, we are delighted that they have chosen us to be a part of their strategy.
