Our Product, The Rotary Hoe

What is a Rotary Hoe?

A rotary hoe is a unique agricultural tool for shallow tillage, used to break up the soil, improve aeration, and control weeds without disturbing crops. Its rotating tines, uproot small weeds and prevent new ones from growing, reducing the need for chemical herbicides and promoting healthier soil. Versatile and efficient in both dry and wet conditions, rotary hoes are widely used across various crops, making them a go-to choice for farmers focused on productivity and sustainability.

VadkertAgro’s Patented Rotary Hoe: A Unique Solution

At VadkertAgro, we’ve enhanced the traditional rotary hoe with our patented spring mechanism, setting our product apart. This innovation allows the hoe to gently avert vines and orchard trees by being able to perform a lateral movement, preventing damage to roots while providing fast, efficient weed control. The result is a highly effective solution that helps farmers save time and reduce costs, all while ensuring precision in delicate environments such as vineyards and orchards.

Note: The above animation illustrates the operation of the rotary hoe. It is important to note that the blades work 8-10 cm below the soil surface, within the root zone.

Soil-Driven, Energy-Efficient Mechanism

Harnessing the power of the soil itself, our rotary hoe’s tines rotate without requiring additional energy inputs from the tractor. This makes the machine both fuel-efficient and environmentally sustainable, helping to reduce overall operating costs.

Pesticide-Free Weed Control

The rotary hoe efficiently eliminates weeds at their early growth stages without the need for harmful pesticides. Its design supports organic and bio-farming, keeping crops healthy and fields free from chemical contamination.

Spring Mechanism for Vine and Orchard Protection

Thanks to the unique spring mechanism, the side rotor gently avoids the base of vines and orchard trees, allowing the rotary hoe to roll off and avoid damaging roots—even at relatively fast speeds of 6-12 km/h. This efficiency allows farmers to cover up to 20-25 hectares per day, saving on both manpower and fuel, making the machine ideal for use in vineyards and orchards.

Gentle on Crops, Tough on Weeds

While the tines aggressively target and uproot weeds, the rotary hoe’s precise depth control ensures that crop roots remain undisturbed, promoting healthier plant growth.

Adaptable to Various Soil Types

Engineered for performance in all soil conditions—from heavy clay to sandy soils—our rotary hoe provides consistent results, ensuring efficiency and versatility in a variety of farming environments.

Clog-Free Operation

Designed to prevent clogging, even in dense or debris-filled fields, the rotary hoe enables smooth and continuous operation. This clog-free feature minimizes downtime, allowing farmers to work more efficiently without frequent interruptions.
