What agricultural tools are there? A full analysis of varieties, prices and uses

Agricultural tools carry many hard-working memories of farming in the hearts of the older generation. Although agricultural mechanization is now being promoted in agricultural production, and some agricultural tools may even be phased out in the future, the emotions contained within them will never fade. In addition, mechanized agricultural production has not yet been fully promoted, and some areas still use traditional agricultural tools for busy farming work. So, besides the hoe, what other agricultural tools do you know? Below, the editor of Nongxun Network will give everyone a roundup of the various varieties, prices and uses of agricultural tools.

1. Hoe

For a farmer, the hoe can be said to be an indispensable agricultural tool, and it can basically play its unique role in underground work, so the hoe's status in farmers' hearts is self-evident.

Uses: mainly used for weeding and turning soil.

Price: 12~30 yuan/piece (price is for reference only).

2. Sickle

The sickle, commonly known as the cutting knife, is almost a wheat-cutting wonder for every household in rural areas. It can be said that the sickle also holds a particularly high status among agricultural tools. Generally, farmers choose to sharpen all the sickles at night, and then go to the fields to work early the next morning.

Uses: used to harvest rice and wheat, and is a common tool for harvesting crops.

Price: 20~28 yuan/piece (price is for reference only).

3. Rakes

When talking about rakes, one can think of Zhu Bajie's weapon, the nine-tooth rake. For Bajie it was a divine weapon, while for farmers rakes are indeed very commonly used agricultural tools.

Uses: used for scraping the ground, scraping manure and grass in cattle pens, etc.

Price: 8.49 yuan/piece (price is for reference only).

4. Transport tools

The transport tools commonly used in rural areas mainly include two kinds: the back basket and the cart. I believe many people rode on carts or used back baskets to hold corn when they were children.

Uses: transport and travel

Price: back baskets cost 7.5~12 yuan/piece, and carts cost about 50~100 yuan each (prices are for reference only).

5. Shovels, spades, etc.

Shovels and spades are also common agricultural tools in rural areas, and these two tools can be used in many situations.

Uses: shovels are mainly used for turning soil, and can also be used for digging holes, throwing clods of earth, etc. Spades are mainly tools used during the autumn harvest.

Price: the prices of shovels and spades are not far apart, basically 12~25 yuan/piece (prices are for reference only).

The above is an introduction to the common varieties, uses and prices of agricultural tools. Although our country's agricultural mechanization is currently developing rapidly, and its efficiency is far faster than these tools, these agricultural tools also have their own unique charm.
