The concept of a wheel hoe that simultaneously works both sides of a row has been around for more than 100
years. Unfortunately, as technology advanced and farms expanded their production in the early part of the 20
th
century, this simple yet effective tool was forgotten. We are very pleased to re-introduce this design in an age
when small farms are again thriving, and the consumption of fresh local food is being embraced by many.
The primary benefit of this design is reduced labor by only having to make one pass at a single row for
cultivating. In addition to reducing repetitions by half, the U-Bar is able to cultivate crops further into their
maturity because of its high clearance and the employment of leaf lifters, which gently guide foliage through
the chassis. In our trials, we were able to cultivate many crops until they reached a height of 16 inches with
little or no crop damage.
