Brush-Type Cultivator Is Gentle On Crops CULTIVATORS Cultivators (58C) 24-5-30 You can "brush" weeds out from between narrow-row crops with this new brush-type cultivator that made its debut at the Royal Show in England.
The manufacturer of the new unit, which originates in Switzerland, says it's geared for high-value vegetable or nursery crops. It can work through seedlings spaced as narrow as 4 1/2 in. without doing damage. The brushes pull weeds out by the roots and lays them on the surface without uplifting and moving soil, like a conventional cultivator.
The bristles are made of a highly wear-resistant nylon material. Brushes are easily adjustable to fit different row widths. There's a model for seedlings (20-in. dia. brushes) and a model for tall-growing crops (30-in. dia. brushes). They're available as either pto or hydraulic-driven.
