The Versatility of the Power Harrow
Many people are familiar with the use of power harrows for market gardens. These machines are perfect for seedbed preparation and weed control. However, their design makes them perfect for other jobs as well–on the small farm and beyond.
First, let’s look at the design of a power harrow. A power harrow has a series of vertical tines connected to horizontal axes. As these axes turn, they till the soil to an adjustable level. A mesh roller follows these axes further tamping the soil and sealing the surface. The resulting surface is not only perfect for seeding but is also the surface desired for many other purposes.
“A power harrow’s ability to produce perfectly leveled, weed-free ground makes it a fantastic choice for many tasks beyond the market garden.”
A power harrow’s ability to produce perfectly leveled, weed-free ground makes it a fantastic choice for many tasks beyond the market garden. This is especially true since it combines the leveling and texturizing tasks of a tiller with the finishing details of a chain drag.
