Selecting the appropriate micro-tiller for your orchard can significantly improve soil management efficiency, reduce labor costs, and is especially suitable for refined operations between fruit tree rows. The core selection revolves around three key factors: terrain and soil type, operation scenarios, and functional requirements. For mountainous orchards or heavy clay soil, prioritize gasoline-powered micro-tillers with 12-18 horsepower. The 4WD system combined with a reinforced gearbox can easily handle slopes and hard soil, while the dual-stage air filtration design reduces dust wear and extends the overall service life of the machine. For greenhouses, potted orchards, or small plots, lithium-ion models are more suitable—lightweight and easy to transport, with zero emissions and low noise, avoiding pollution to fruits and soil, and less likely to damage the shallow root systems of fruit trees during operation.
In terms of machine size, an adjustable working width of 38-60cm is the optimal range. The narrow design facilitates flexible turning between fruit tree rows without scratching branches. If you need to perform multiple operations such as furrowing, fertilizing, weeding, and hilling, choose a multi-functional model that supports tool expansion. Equipped with attachments like furrowers and weeding wheels, it can achieve multiple uses in one machine. In addition, an adjustable tilling depth of 10-30cm is more practical, meeting the growth needs of different fruit tree root systems. Models with adjustable armrest height and reverse gear are more labor-saving to operate. It is recommended to prioritize brands with extensive after-sales service networks for more convenient maintenance later.
