3 жыл бұрынIn part 2 of a three-part webinar series about no-till and rotational tillage, a panel of farmer and industry experts discuss innovative weed control tools for use in organic no-till and rotational tillage systems. Examples include flame weeders, weed zappers, row-mow systems, a high residue cultivator, and the Garford Mechanical Weeder.
The panel includes Randall Wenger of Mid Atlantic Farm Service, Sam Malriat of Rodale Institute, Loran Steinlage of Dawn Equipment, and Michael Kathalynas of Garford Equipment.
We thank Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture, Northeast SARE, and Penn State Extension for their support.

I think the Swedish CombCut would have fit in with the theme. There is a bank of fixed blades facing up at a 45 degree so vertical plants have to touch the blades. Stiff plants(presumably your weeds) would catch the edge and get cut off, flexible crops like young wheat would pass by. There is a You Tube video of it.

More costs for the farmer, how is this organic? Mother Nature does not use flame throwers to kill weeds
