Anyone ever tossed around the idea of a front mount cultivator run off the loader arms? Of course it will need gauge wheels but it seems like it would be a lot easier to operate and keep out of the sweet corn.

Your visibility will be greatly improved (as opposed to twisting your neck looking over your shoulder.). However your implement will be extremely "reactive" to your steering wheel.

You'll be able to travel FASTER with accuracy and consequently get better results with mid or rear mount cultivators.

I pulled a 3 point hitch 6-row cultivator through 6,000 acres of soybeans,,,

I doubt I looked back more than twice a day,,, that was typically when I hit a ground hog mound.

It worked so good, I would not try to re-invent the "wheel",,,

Soybeans are child's play :)
