Basket Weeder

Manufacturer Part Number:

Tilmor Part Number:

by Tilmor Ox Logo - Gray

Starting at $1,523

For decades, farmers have relied on the Basket Weeder to enhance early weed control, keeping their fields cleaner with minimal soil disturbance. Designed for inter-row weeding, its rotating wire baskets break up soil and uproot weeds while allowing crops to pass safely between them. It can also be used for stale seedbed preparation by positioning the baskets together to cultivate the entire surface, disrupting weeds before planting.

For tougher conditions, the front basket can be replaced with spyders for better penetration in hard or compacted soil.

60" basket weeders allow for up to 53" of cultivation

80" basket weeders allow for up to 73" of cultivation

Standard Baskets

Tilmor basket wires are made of ¼” zinc-plated spring steel in widths of 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 inches. Configure the Basket Weeder to meet your specific needs or Contact Us for assistance:

  1. Select the basket width to match the crop row width less the desired clearance (ex.: a 13 inch crop row minus 3 inches of clearance on each side of the basket requires a 7 inch basket).
    Note: There must be a front and rear basket, so two 7 inch baskets should be added.
  2. Select the number of baskets needed to work both sides of each row (ex.: number of rows + 1 = number of baskets pairs. 3 rows requires a total of 8 baskets).

Basket Weeder Overview- The Best Cultivation Tool For Direct Seeded Crops
Overview

Growers use the Tilmor Basket Weeder to eliminate weeds throughout the season saving labor, time and money. The wire baskets are most commonly spaced apart for inter-row weeding, allowing the crop to pass between. Basket weeders may also be used to prepare a stale seedbed by placing the baskets together and running over the entire width of a seedbed. Basket weeders have been around for over sixty years and are trusted by many growers to effectively control inter-row weeds. Tilmor makes basket weeders available to fit many older tractors such as (but not limited to) the Kubota L245, Farmall 140, and Allis-Chalmers G. They are also able to fit modern tractors with a 3-pt hitch as well as the Tilmor 520 Tractor.

Testimonial

Sound Sustainable Farms is a 60 Acre Organic Operation in Redmond, Washington. In this video, Chris and Arturo discuss the labor efficiency benefits of adding one Tilmor implement to the farm. It allows workers to save time weeding and spend more time on other tasks like harvesting, packing and washing. After learning more about the current set-up at Sound Sustainable Farms that you see in this video, Tilmor made a few suggestions on how to maximize the finger weeder and basket weeder implements; running the finger weeders after or separately from the basket weeder may provide more benefit. You can learn more about Sound Sustainable Farm on https://www.soundsfarms.com/ Small growers face unique challenges and often must rely on older equipment that was developed many years ago for mechanized cultivation. This often means farmers are forced to rely on parts that are obsolete, poorly constructed or difficult to find.
