Understanding Tractor Tillers
A tractor tiller is a type of agricultural implement that is attached to the rear of a tractor to till and prepare the soil for planting.
Some key points about tractor tillers:
- Tractor tillers come in a range of sizes, typically from 4-7 feet in width, and are designed to be compatible with different tractor horsepower ratings.
- They use rotating tines or blades to loosen, mix, and aerate the soil, creating a fine, even seedbed.
- This helps improve soil moisture retention and reduce erosion.
- Tractor tillers are often used for tasks like preparing seed beds, renovating pastures and orchards, and incorporating cover crops and stubble into the soil.
- They can be equipped with features like adjustable skid shoes to control the tilling depth, slip clutches to protect the drivetrain, and rear shields to control the soil mixing.
- Tractor tillers are designed to connect to the tractor's 3-point hitch and PTO (power take-off) system, allowing the tractor to power the tilling mechanism.
Prices for tractor tillers can range from around $200 for smaller models up to $3,000 or more for heavy-duty commercial-grade units.
In summary, a tractor tiller is an essential implement for preparing and maintaining agricultural land, leveraging the power of a tractor to till the soil in an efficient and controlled manner.
