I have always enjoyed the setting of the vineyards and now I had the opportunity to test the Goat 22T RC mower in my local vineyard. The vineyard is Daniel Rossier et Fils and they have a great champagne style wine. Do try it out. Now back to remote controlled vineyard mowing.
The remote controlled mower looks great in the vineyard. I set the cutting deck to its highest level of 14 cm (5.5″) for my first pass. I wanted to check there were no big ruts to travel across.
With the first run complete without any problems, I lowered the cutting deck to 9 cm (3.5″) to make a second pass. You can see the video of both runs below. The vine spacing is around 1.5 meters, therefore with the current set up you would need two passes to mower the center spacing.
Below is a fast motion view of the remote controlled vineyard mowing with a zero turn at the end of the video.
Take a look at our previous video showing the remote controlled mower in an alpine setting, to show how steep a vineyard you can mow.
