The management of weeds, also cultivated ones, requires rationality: the mechanical means that cut and till the soil are tools for controlling weeds economically, effectively, quickly and without environmental impact, typical of chemical herbicides.
Their use (and the use of pesticides in general) is always a problem, both for environmental reasons (alteration of food chains, reduction of biodiversity, water quality, human health, deterioration of soil quality) and because they favour the onset of resistant weeds (and other pests).
For organic farming, on the other hand, physical or mechanical control represents the only system allowed. Although it requires a greater number of interventions in the right time frames, it undoubtedly brings advantages to crops and to the quality of the products.
Spontaneous herbs in cultivated areas are contrasted because they can generate a series of problems:
The inter-row disc can be used both to complete the work on the row done with other tools, and to quickly mow weeds under the stomp.
From an operational point of view, it is necessary to consider some critical issues:
