Seedling Establishment Equipment

ANCO Manufacturing Silviculture

ANCO Manufacturing offers world-class, industry specific seedling establishment equipment focusing on semi-mechanisation in agro-forestry seedling establishment and re-forestation operations.

ANCO Manufacturing has been involved with the development and design of modernized tree planting equipment since 2012. Working in conjunction with major forestry companies, continued development and design led to the latest development of a product range known as the ANCO GP3000  planting system.

The ANCO GP3000 Dual is designed to be part of a seedling establishment (tree planting) management system and is used to plant seedlings in various soil types and on terrain where tractor / trailer type operations are allowed or preferred.

The GP3000 allows up to 5 planting tool operators to walk behind the slow-moving tractor / trailer combination while using one of three methods to plant seedlings in most typical silviculture seedling establishment operations.

Method 1 – High Pressure pitting and planting (also know in some organizations by the German term “Wasser-phlanter”).

Method 2 – Low pressure Hydro-Gel planting in pre-pitted / pre-prepared soil.

Method 3 – Low pressure water planting in pre-pitted / pre-prepared soil.
