Types of Tillage Equipment
Tillage is a long-used farming practice to prepare the soil by digging, stirring, rolling, pushing and overturning. Farmers used to rely on horses, oxen and mules to work the soil, which proved to be labor-intensive and inefficient. Over the years, various kinds of tillage equipment have evolved to increase on-the-job productivity.
At Cat Used, we list various types of tillage equipment for sale at Cat® dealers throughout the United States. These powerful tools are versatile, thoroughly inspected and ready to hit the field when they arrive at your farm. The units we regularly sell include:
- Rippers: These instruments help agriculturists loosen up compacted soil to allow air to enter, improving conditions and enhancing seed placement for a higher yield.
- Cultivators: Cultivators are secondary tillage tools used to stir and pulverize soil to prepare for planting or control weeds.
- Plows: These large blades perform medium-depth and deep tilling projects to create furrows.
- Harrows: Utilized after plowing, harrows break up soil and clods to yield a uniform structure.
