2025 Kuhn 5640 Field Cultivator 56

The 5640 field cultivator offers increased productivity, high residue capacity, excellent depth control, plus superior clod sizing and leveling to create the ideal seedbed for your high-value seeds. The 5640 field cultivator is available with working widths ranging from 56'6" to 60'6".

The 5640 field cultivator features five rows of shanks for exceptional residue flow, ideal for today’s high-yield cash crop environments. The shanks are precisely spaced at 6 inches and arranged in a split-the-middle pattern, ensuring thorough weed removal across the entire width. Additionally, it includes an innovative floating hitch design and a positive stop depth control, which together ensure consistent working depth, crucial for uniform germination and seedling emergence.

Features may include:

Mix

The 5640 field cultivator provides increased residue flow through the five rows of shanks in high residue conditions.

Cultivate

Uniform cultivation with the split-the-middle sweep pattern removes green growth leading to better seed-to-soil contact

Enhance Seedbed Condition

The 24/7® leveling systems create a smooth, level seedbed surface for reduced planter row unit bounce, providing consistent seed spacing and planting depth.

Split-the-Middle Design

The first three ranks of shanks till the full sweep width, while the fourth and fifth ranks till the middles creating a split-the-middle sweep pattern

Six-inch shank spacing provides maximum tillage action and uniform soil, residue and herbicide mixing

Front-to-rear frame clearance of 139” allows the 5640 field cultivator to handle high volumes of residue.

Floating Hitch

The unique KUHN Krause floating hitch system accurately gauges the depth of tillage across rolling terrain, promoting rapid and uniform crop emergence. A consistent depth of tillage ensures uniform soil moisture around the seed zone, enabling seeds to absorb moisture evenly from the soil. This uniformity is essential for the synchronized emergence of seedlings, a key factor in achieving the highest possible yields. Traditional hitch systems fail to adapt to undulating terrain, digging too deep on crests and not deep enough in troughs, leading to irregular emergence and a direct impact on the ultimate yield potential.
