Agricultural Cultivator for 20-100HP Tractors

The BSM Agricultural Cultivator is designed for tractors from approximately 20HP to 100HP. It is a three-point mounted field cultivation implement used for soil loosening, surface cultivation, weed control and regular farmland maintenance.

Unlike primary tillage equipment such as a disc plough or mouldboard plough, the cultivator is mainly used for shallower soil cultivation, loosening the upper soil layer and controlling weeds without fully inverting the soil.

Different cultivator configurations can be selected according to tractor horsepower, working width, working depth, soil resistance, crop row spacing and actual field conditions.

Main Agricultural Applications

• Soil loosening after planting
• Surface cultivation before crop growth
• Weed control between crop rows
• Farmland maintenance
• Dryland cultivation
• Vegetable field cultivation
• Breaking light surface crust
• Improving soil aeration
• Maintaining loose soil around crop rows
• Preparing cultivated land for the next operation

How the Agricultural Cultivator Works

The cultivator is connected to the tractor through a rear three-point hitch and is pulled forward by tractor traction.

During operation, the working teeth penetrate into the upper soil layer, breaking compacted surface soil and disturbing weeds.

The soil is loosened rather than fully turned over, which makes the cultivator suitable for regular field maintenance, inter-row cultivation and lighter secondary tillage operations.

The final working depth should be adjusted according to soil hardness, crop stage, root depth and weed conditions.

Main Product Features

• 20-100HP Tractor Range: Different cultivator configurations can be matched with compact, utility and medium-power agricultural tractors.
• Three-Point Mounted Structure: Connects directly to compatible tractors through the rear three-point hitch.
• Mechanical Traction: The implement is pulled by the tractor and does not require PTO power for normal cultivation.
• Soil Loosening: Working teeth penetrate the upper soil layer to improve soil structure and aeration.
• Weed Control: Suitable for disturbing and removing weeds during field maintenance.
• Surface Cultivation: Designed for shallower cultivation rather than complete soil inversion.
• Flexible Working Width: Working width depends on the selected cultivator model and tractor capacity.
• Adjustable Working Depth: Working depth can be selected according to crop, soil and field requirements.
• Simple Mechanical Structure: Easy to operate, inspect and maintain.
• OEM Support: Color, logo and selected specifications can be customized according to order requirements.

Reference Technical Parameters

Because different cultivator models can have different working widths, working depths and machine weights, final specifications should be confirmed according to the selected configuration before ordering.

How to Match a Cultivator with Tractor Horsepower

Tractor horsepower is an important reference, but the final cultivator size should also consider working width, soil resistance, machine weight, three-point lifting capacity and crop row spacing.

These ranges are matching directions rather than fixed model specifications. Final matching should consider actual soil conditions, tractor operating weight, rear lifting capacity and required working width.

Recommended BSM Tractor Matching

50HP Tractor

A 50HP tractor is a practical match for a medium cultivator configuration on small and medium farms.

It can be used for soil loosening, weed control and regular farmland maintenance where field size and soil resistance are moderate.

70HP Tractor

A 70HP 4WD tractor can support a wider cultivator configuration and is suitable for medium farms requiring higher daily field capacity.

Final working width should be selected according to soil resistance, rear lifting capacity, crop row spacing and desired working speed.

80HP Tractor

An 80HP 4WD tractor provides more traction and rear implement capacity, making it suitable for medium-width or wider cultivator configurations.

It is especially practical for medium farms that require repeated soil loosening and field cultivation.

90HP Tractor

A 90HP tractor is suitable for buyers who need wider implement compatibility and higher field cultivation capacity.

The cultivator should still be selected according to working width, soil resistance and rear lifting capacity, rather than horsepower alone.

100HP Tractor

A 100HP tractor can support wider cultivator configurations for medium and large farms where higher daily field capacity is required.

The final cultivator size should be confirmed according to tractor weight, rear lift, soil hardness and actual working depth.

Cultivator vs Rotary Tiller

A cultivator and a rotary tiller can both be used for soil preparation, but their working principles and applications are different.

Cultivator vs Disc Harrow

A cultivator and a disc harrow are also used at different stages of soil preparation.

Can a Cultivator Be Used After Planting?

Yes, a cultivator can be used after planting when row spacing and crop growth stage allow safe inter-row operation.

The cultivator can loosen surface soil and disturb weeds between crop rows.

However, working width and depth must be carefully adjusted to avoid damaging crop roots or plants.

For row-crop cultivation, the tractor tire spacing and cultivator working units should also match the crop row spacing.

Suitable Crops

Corn and Maize

The cultivator can be used between maize rows for soil loosening and weed control when crop spacing and working width are properly matched.

Wheat

The machine can be used for field cultivation and soil maintenance before planting or in suitable field preparation stages.

Vegetables

Compact cultivator configurations can be practical for vegetable fields where narrow working widths and flexible tractor maneuverability are important.

Suitable Field Conditions

Previously Cultivated Farmland

The cultivator is well suited to farmland that has already received primary tillage and requires lighter surface cultivation.

Dry Land

It can be used for loosening dry agricultural soil when working depth and tractor traction are properly matched.

Vegetable Fields

Suitable configurations can be used for surface cultivation and weed control in vegetable production areas.

How Soil Conditions Affect Cultivator Selection

Soil hardness directly affects draft resistance.

In loose or previously cultivated soil, a tractor may operate a wider cultivator configuration.

In hard, dry or compact soil, the working width or working depth may need to be reduced to maintain stable traction.

Buyers should therefore provide soil information before final model selection.

How Working Depth Should Be Selected

Cultivator working depth depends on the purpose of the operation.

For light weed control, a shallower setting may be sufficient.

For deeper soil loosening, greater depth may be used when tractor traction and crop root conditions allow.

When cultivating between growing crop rows, working depth should be controlled carefully to avoid damaging crop roots.

Does an Agricultural Cultivator Require PTO?

The standard BSM Agricultural Cultivator uses mechanical tractor traction. The working teeth move through the soil as the tractor travels forward.

Therefore, PTO power is generally not required for normal cultivator operation.

This is one of the main differences between a cultivator and a PTO-driven rotary tiller.

Field Operation Recommendations

• Check three-point linkage pins and bolts before operation
• Adjust cultivator position before entering the field
• Start with a moderate working depth
• Maintain stable tractor speed
• Avoid excessive wheel slip
• Adjust working width according to crop row spacing
• Avoid working too close to crop roots
• Lift the cultivator before reversing
• Inspect working teeth regularly
• Replace damaged or heavily worn working parts
• Clean soil residue after operation
• Lubricate adjustment points when required

Example Crop Production Workflow

A cultivator can form part of a complete crop production workflow:

1. Primary tillage: disc plough or mouldboard plough
2. Secondary preparation: disc harrow or rotary tiller
3. Planting: corn planter or suitable seeder
4. Post-planting maintenance: cultivator for inter-row soil loosening and weed control
