Heavy-Duty Construction: Made from high-strength materials to ensure durability and longevity.
Versatility: Can be used for various farming tasks, including weed control, soil aeration, and seedbed preparation.
Benefits:
Efficient Soil Preparation: The tines break up hard soil, making it easier for crops to take root and grow.
Improved Aeration: Helps to aerate the soil, promoting better water infiltration and root growth.
Weed Control: Helps in controlling weeds by uprooting them during cultivation.
Usage:
Tractor Compatibility: Usually attached to a tractor for ease of use and efficiency.
Field Preparation: Used before planting to prepare the field, ensuring a fine and uniform seedbed.
