ASP – Reforestation for Large Projects
Reduce planting costs, expand establishments and extend your planting season - the ASP Planter is geared toward maximal productivity for large establishments and reforestation projects.
About Risutec ASP for Large Reforestation projects
The ASP is designed for establishment and reforestation of pine, eucalyptus, and other subtropical seedlings in a pot. Risutec ASP makes forestry building more efficient. The ASP planter enables afforestation projects using natural seedlings for mixed stand forest creation and maximal carbon capture.
With a capacity of up to 720 seedlings per loading, the ASP-range enables efficient operations. The ASP employs sub-soiling cultivation with a durable pitting unit. We recommend operating on semi-arid and arid flat terrains.
Main Soil Cultivation Method

Pitting for deep rooted trees
The ASP uses a pitting soil cultivator that crushes the soil without cutting it. The pitting head will loosen the soil avoiding glazing under normal condition. In optimal soil conditions, only a quarter rotation is needed for soil cultivation – speeding up operations further. Operators can use the pitting bars to remove slash and harvesting residue. The pitting attachment has an approximate cracking depth of 60 cm with an 80cm diameter.

Integrated guidance
Risutec TASK Guiding system speeds up the planting process and saves resources by planting several rows
without moving the excavator tracks.
Mechanical reforestation
Use the larger casette size for natural seedlings and reforestation/afforestation projects, or for landscape contracting.
