1. Field Tuff 48-Inch

The Field Tuff 48-Inch (around $480) is designed to be towed by ATVs with engines of 500cc or larger. Its wide cutting path allows you to cover a lot of ground in a short amount of time, making it a good choice for commercial farmers. You can adjust its depth as needed.

Accepts a variety of hitch heights
13-inch air-filled tires
Suitable for almost all soil types

2. Impact Implements Pro

The Impact Implements Pro (about $180) has a two-inch hitch receiver and six curving tines that can be moved horizontally along the bar for the perfect positioning. They are also removable and replaceable in case you somehow manage to damage one.

Beveled edges for less resistance
Tough steel construction
Budget-friendly price

3. Camco Black Boar S

The Camco Black Boar S (about $195) are made from sturdy steel and engineered with a parallel linkage design that helps the tines maintain the proper angle as they are lowered into the soil. They are easiest to use when combined with the company's motorized implement lift.

Include high-quality u-bolts
Allow for any horizontal placement
Best for use on softer ground

4. Kolpin CT036

Not only do the Kolpin CT036 (about $253) look great, with their elegantly curving shape, but, and more importantly, they dig deeply into both soft and hard soil, making them a very effective option. Unfortunately, you'll have to purchase the required mounting bar separately.

Hold up well to lots of use
Sweeps can be reversed when needed
Have a tendency to get clogged

5. Brinly CC-56BH

The Brinly CC-56BH (appx. $229) is a versatile model that allows you to adjust the cutting path from 18 to 40 inches, so it is good for aerating small rows, as well as preparing large swaths of land. Its 7.5-inch steel shanks gently loosen soil and remove unwanted brush.

Infinitely adjustable depth
Tends to wander horizontally
Requires the use of a sleeve hitch
