Which kind of Rotavator a Farmer should buy
Some points keep in mind while purchasing a brand new rotavator
1. Tractor HP. (horsepower)
2. compare Rotavator from different brands which is available near your market.
3. Availability of spare parts.
4. Strength of rotavator.
5. Size of field.
6. gear connection.
1. Tractor HP. (horsepower)
Farmers or professionals who work in the fields should select a rotavator according to the tractor horsepower (HP). Because if a farmer uses a rotavator that is too large for his tractor’s horsepower, it won’t be able to operate in the fields. It will struggle a lot, putting a significant load on the engine, and there’s a risk of the engine breaking down. And if he uses a small rotavator with the tractor, it won’t be beneficial because it will consume more diesel, and work less and the work will take longer, resulting in a loss. Therefore, buy a rotavator according to the tractor’s horsepower. Consider this carefully before making a purchase.
Number of Tines/Blades: A rotavator with more blades per flange requires more horsepower for the same width but offers finer soil pulverization.
| Tractor HP Range | Recommended Rotavator Width | Rotavator Type |
|---|---|---|
| 15–30 HP | 3 to 4 feet (36″–48″) | Mini/Light-Duty |
| 35–50 HP | 5 to 6 feet (60″–72″) | Standard/Medium-Duty |
| 50+ HP | 7 feet and above (72″+) | Heavy-Duty |
| 90–110 HP | 10 feet | Heavy-Duty |
| 100–140 HP | 12 feet | Heavy-Duty |
| Up to 140 HP | 12 feet | Heavy-Duty |
2. compare Rotavator from different brands which is available near your market.
Visit your local market and check out rotavators from different companies. Compare prices, quality, features, and durability. Make sure you buy from a reputable local dealer. Make sure to thoroughly research the market and ensure that the rotavator you are about to buy is the best in its category and price range.
3. Availability of spare parts.
Most importantly, when buying a rotavator, make sure to choose one for which spare parts are readily available in your local market 24/7. A rotavator is a machine that will inevitably break down during use, and if it breaks down while you’re working and you can’t find the necessary parts locally, it will cause significant problems. Your work will be interrupted, and you’ll waste valuable time. Therefore, buy a rotavator only after ensuring the availability of its spare parts.
4. Strength of rotavator.
When buying a rotavator, pay close attention to its strength and build quality. A good quality rotavator from a reputable brand will last for many years and won’t break down easily, whereas a poorly made one will frequently malfunction, resulting in significant losses of time and money.
Gear-driven rotavators are robust and ideal for heavy-duty operations and tough soil conditions, requiring less maintenance.
Chain-driven rotavators are suitable for softer soil conditions and are typically easier to handle and repair.
5. Size of field.
Also consider the size of the fields. If you have small fields in your area, then small rotavators are suitable, but if the fields are large, then larger rotavators are better. If you use a large rotavator in a small field, it won’t work properly, and if you use a small rotavator in a large field, it will take a long time. Therefore, choose the size of the rotavator according to the size of the field.
6. gear connection. Transmission Type:
- Gear-driven rotavators are robust and ideal for heavy-duty operations and tough soil conditions, requiring less maintenance.
- Chain-driven rotavators are suitable for softer soil conditions and are typically easier to handle and repair.
