A tractor-mounted fixed-tooth harrow is an agricultural implement used for soil preparation. It is used to break up and level the soil after ploughing, thus facilitating sowing. The tooth harrow has several important functions:

• Clod crushing: It breaks up the hard soil clods left by ploughing, making the soil finer and more suitable for sowing.
• Ground levelling: It evens out the soil surface by eliminating dips and bumps that could hinder crop growth.
• Soil aeration: It improves air circulation in the soil by promoting the decomposition of organic matter and improving soil structure.
• Weed control: It breaks up the weed roots by reducing their growth and facilitating their removal.

The tooth harrow can be used on different soil types and is particularly effective on clay and compact soils.

Adjusting the harrow is crucial for optimum results when tilling the soil. Here are the main steps to correctly adjust a harrow:

• Teeth height: Adjust the teeth height to the desired depth. This can be carried out via special adjustment mechanisms on the tool.
• Teeth angle: Adjust the working angle of the teeth to suit the soil conditions and the type of work desired. A greater angle can increase the crushing effect.
• Teeth distribution: Make sure that the teeth are evenly distributed across the width of the harrow to ensure even soil tillage.
• Forward speed: Adapt the tractor's forward speed according to the soil conditions and the desired tillage quality.
• Harrow weight: Add or remove weights to optimise the pressure exerted by the teeth on the soil, improving tillage efficiency.

The fixed tooth harrow is used in various agricultural situations to improve soil preparation. Here are the main contexts in which this tool is used:

• Pre-sowing: To break up and level the soil before sowing by improving seed-soil contact.
• Post-ploughing: After ploughing to break up large clods and level the soil surface.
• Weed control: To disrupt the soil and reduce the amount of weeds between crops.
• Pasture renewal: To improve soil quality in pastures by promoting the growth of better grasses for pasture.

Harrows differ in structure, operation and intended use. Here are the main differences between fixed-tooth harrow, rotary harrow and spring harrow:

• Fixed-tooth harrow: It features rigid teeth fixed to a bar. It is mainly used to break up clods and level the soil. It is suitable for medium-hard soils.
• Rotary harrow: It features teeth fixed to rotating discs or cylinders. This type of harrow is used for deeper soil tillage and mixing of crop residues. It works well on more compact soils.
• Spring harrow: It has flexible teeth fixed on springs. It is used for surface work and weed control. It is suitable for light and sandy soils, allowing for less aggressive tillage.

Each type of harrow has specific applications and is chosen according to soil conditions and crop needs.

Harrowing is an essential agricultural practice for soil preparation before sowing. This process uses different types of harrows to improve soil structure and create optimal conditions for plant growth. Here are the main benefits of harrowing:

• Clod crushing: It breaks up clods of soil formed during ploughing, making the soil finer and more suitable for sowing.
• Ground levelling: It evens out the soil surface by eliminating roughness that could interfere with sowing and plant growth.
• Soil aeration: It improves air circulation in the soil by promoting the decomposition of organic matter and improving soil structure.
• Weed control: It reduces the growth of weeds by breaking up their roots and making them easier to remove.
• Incorporation of crop residues: It mixes the residues of previous crops in the soil, improving soil fertility and structure.

After harrowing, there are several important steps involved in preparing the soil for sowing and ensuring good crop growth. Here are the main steps to be taken:

• Soil rolling: Roll a roller over the soil to compact it slightly and create an even surface. This helps to improve soil-seed contact.
• Sowing: Spread the seeds on the prepared soil using mechanical or manual garden seeders, depending on the size of the field and the type of crop.
• Seed coverage: Cover the seeds with a thin layer of soil using special tools or by simply raking the soil. This protects the seeds from birds and promotes sprouting.
• Watering: Supply sufficient water to promote seed sprouting and support initial seedling growth.
• Fertiliser application: Add nutrients to the soil to improve fertility and support plant growth. This can be achieved through organic fertilisation or the application of chemical fertilisers.
• Weed control: Monitor and remove any weeds that may compete with crops for nutrients and water.
