Among secondary tillage equipments, which of the following performs functions intermediate between those of plough and the harrow?

  • A.Cultivator
  • B.Disc
  • C.Mouldboard
  • D.Rotavator

Answer: A

The implement is the Cultivator.

A cultivator (tiller) with tynes or shovels stirs and breaks the soil to a moderate depth. It is used after ploughing to break clods and prepare the seedbed, and for interculture and weeding. Its working depth and action place it between the plough, which opens the soil deeply, and the harrow, which only works the surface.

The disc harrow is a harrow itself, the mouldboard is a plough, and the rotavator is a separate rotary implement.
