- This video shows Tillett and Hague's latest electrically powered in-row weeding technology being operated at high speed and in a range of conditions from light to heavy soils. The commentary and video explain how full cultivation around crop plants is achieved even as plant spacing or tractor speed varies. This technology is now available from our licensee Garford Farm Machinery as Robocrop Electric In-row.

Wow Tillett and Hague redefining the agricultural engineering space
Fantastic detailed video. I'm an organic farmer working on too small a scale for the Garford machines but I've always admired the system. The move to BLDC gearmotors is excellent and wise and it looks like you got everything perfect. Well done and thanks for making videos with enough technical detail.
Thanks Reid We appreciate your comments!
Wow, this is genuinely impressive
Awesome technology!
Wow! Truly an amazing machine!
Very amazing machine,no single weed showing in plant ,salute to your recercher and mind blowing effort 👍from india.
Great video mate. We use a Garford robocrop for our broccolini and it absolutely amazing.

Will it work for strawberries?
At the early grow stages i.e. before runners, the technique should work fine on strawberries. There may be some practical considerations relating to plant spacing within the row and distance between rows, but in principle the answer is yes.
Very nice Machine , can we use this machine for Garlic weed removing ?
Thanks Asif.
The machine needs individual crop plants to be at least 180mm apart within the crop row so that there is room for the rotary blade to move in between plants without doing any damage. This is normally achieved by accurately transplanting in crops like lettuce and the brassicas, but can also be achieved with very good precision drilling. Crops like garlic and onion are normally grown as a continuous row of closely spaced plants in which there is no space for the blade to fit between plants. However these crops can benefit from vision guided inter-row cultivation as vision guidance can allow cultivators to run much closer to the crop plant and run at higher speed than would be the case under manual control.
I know that some growers have experimented with growing onions as clumps in modules and transplanted them out so that the machine can cultivate between these clumps. From a guidance perspective this is fine but I am not sure if these experiments were successful commercially. This might also work for garlic but I am afraid I cannot be sure.
Thanks for your reply sir.

Good technology
how mutch machine
What is price in USD
Currently we only supply our electric in-row technology to our customer Garford Farm Machinery Ltd. They can be reached at www.garford.com/ and would I am sure be pleased to quote for your requirements.
Do you still sell these machines today is 12-15-22 ?
Hi Mark
Yes, we continue to develop and supply the technology as a package to implement manufacturers.
@@NickTillett Thanks for replying . I asked because one of your machines sold at a auction yesterday in LaConner , Washington

Aeration is the process of "puncturing the soil" to allow better water penetration and to introduce more oxygen into the soil. ... Aeration may also be known as soil aeration or oxygenation.

What about corn and soybean crops
In principle the technology could be used on any precision planted crop at grow stages before they touch in the row or become too tall. However, the machines are relatively expensive and compared to other operations, the maximum work rate of about 5 plants per second per row is relatively slow, . In commercial practice these machines are mostly used on high value crops for which there are few alternative options that do not involve hand labour. This situation may change as weed pressures increase.
Great thank you for the fast response. We are an organic farm and have some specialty crops at times. I was thinking maybe in the future if we continue to grow at the rate we are, either way I find this amazing .
@@NickTillett I need to Africa
I need it am from Africa
You have to sell half of the continent to buy that machine...
