  2. Tillage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tillage

    The tillage kills the weeds via two mechanisms: uprooting them, burying their leaves (cutting off their photosynthesis), or a combination of both. Weed control both prevents the crop plants from being outcompeted by the weeds (for water and sunlight) and prevents the weeds from reaching their seed stage, thus reducing future weed population ...

  3. Cultivator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultivator

    Small tilling equipment, used in small gardens such as household gardens and small commercial gardens, can provide both primary and secondary tillage. For example, a rotary tiller does both the "plowing" and the "harrowing", preparing a smooth, loose seedbed. It does not provide the row-wise weed control that cultivator teeth would.

  4. Harrow (tool) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harrow_(tool)

    In agriculture, a harrow is a farm implement used for surface tillage. It is used after ploughing for breaking up and smoothing out the surface of the soil. The purpose of harrowing is to break up clods and to provide a soil structure, called tilth, that is suitable for planting seeds.

  5. Agricultural machinery - Wikipedia

    They are used to push/pull implements—machines that till the ground, plant seeds, and perform other tasks. Tillage implements prepare the soil for planting by loosening the soil and killing weeds or competing plants. The best-known is the plow, the ancient implement that was upgraded in 1838 by John Deere.

  6. Disc harrow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_harrow

    Other similar secondary tillage tine implements or rotary harrows are also widely used. When choosing secondary tillage equipment, soil type as well as soil moisture content at the time must be considered. Lighter secondary disc harrows are primarily used to break down soil clods into smaller pieces.

  7. Subsoiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subsoiler

    A subsoiler or flat lifter is a tractor-mounted farm implement used for deep tillage, loosening and breaking up soil at depths below the levels worked by moldboard ploughs, disc harrows, or rototillers. Most such tools will break up and turn over surface soil to a depth of 15–20 cm (6–8 in), whereas a subsoiler will break up and loosen soil ...

  8. Vertical tillage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical_tillage

    Many times it also includes a deep ripping tool for breaking up hard pans and compaction created from traditional tillage implements and heavy equipment like large tractors and combine harvesters. Benefits include: less compaction - decreased and improved bulk density; more efficient- faster field speeds (as compared to other tillage tools),

  9. Hoe (tool) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoe_(tool)

    Their use is typically to loosen the soil, prior to planting or sowing. [11] Clam hoes, made for clam digging [30] Adze hoes, with the basic hoe shape but heavier and stronger and with traditional uses in trail making. [31] Pacul or cangkul (hoes similar to adze hoe from Malaysia and Indonesia) Gang hoes for powered use (in use at least from ...
