Tractor Cultivator

In ancient times, cultivation was done with animal labour. Arthur Clifford Howard invented the rotary hoe in 1912 to improve productivity and lower dependency on animal labour. This was one of the first steps towards advancements in agriculture. 

A cultivator machine is one of the primary tractor implements that contribute significantly to land preparation and intercultural operations. It is used to prepare the soil and remove the weeds for planting or sowing. So, it is a must-have implement for farmers. At Tractorkarvan, you can get curated details of all cultivator models of top implement brands, including Fieldking cultivators, Lemken cultivators and Landforce cultivators. 

What are the Uses of a Tractor Cultivator? 

• As a primary tillage implement, a cultivator helps cut the topsoil to ensure proper aeration. It allows the roots to receive a suitable amount of nutrients, water and air.  
• As a secondary tillage implement, it helps till or loosen the soil after the field is ploughed. Thus, it plays a major role in preparing soil for sowing or planting.  
• It also helps prepare seedbeds before sowing and helps create airy, light, and well-tilled farmland. 
• An agriculture cultivator is also used for weed management. It cuts the topsoil, uprooting the weeds grown between row crop plantations and in orchards. 

What are the Different Types of Cultivators? 

A cultivator can be classified on the basis of different factors. The first factor is the number of tynes. A tyne is that part of the cultivator that cuts the soil. Generally, a cultivator has 5 to 15 tynes, which you can choose as per your requirement. 

There are 5 to 7 tynes in a mini tractor cultivator. They work perfectly with mini tractors. These cultivators are fit for intercultural operations in small fields and orchards. Some of the popular mini tractor cultivators are Akshaya Agri CLST05 and Mahindra Spring Loaded (Heavy Duty - 7 tynes).  

A large cultivator usually has 9-15 tynes and is compatible with higher HP tractors. It is most suitable for tillage work on bigger fields. As they offer better productivity, these cultivators ensure faster work. Popular examples include Lemken Achat 70 - 3/9, Farmking Extra Heavy Duty FKSLC11-EHD and Krishiking Spring Loaded Medium 15 Tyne.   

Another distinguishing factor for cultivators is the rigidity and flexibility of their tynes. Based on this factor, cultivators are of three types: cultivators with spring-loaded tynes, cultivators with rigid tynes and duck-foot cultivators.  

The tyne of a spring-loaded cultivator swing back with the help of a spring when some obstacles like rocks come in its path. It ensures safe operations and a longer life for the cultivator. Also, it is best for soils filled with stumps or stones.  

A rigid-type cultivator has tynes that remain fixed and do not deflect after coming in contact with any obstacle. It is considered suitable for effectively tilling hard soils. A duck-foot cultivator has rigid tines and triangular-shaped blades (sweeps). It is widely used to remove weeds and for shallow ploughing.
