I took a guess on what this was called on google
Anything anyone can tell me about it would be appreciated
It is original equipment for my little tractor and I’d like to learn how to use it
I can take better pictures
This stuff hasn’t been cared for but I plan to clean it up and hopefully use it someday

EDIT:

It's a good tool if the soil had been opened up first. It sure brings up the rocks!

I used mine 4X and then sold it. The disk harrow did the job 100X better.

I figured that it would be something used after the soil was broken up.
I’ve read that it’s used to keep the weeds down but I’m not seeing how that really works.
Thanks

Thats a single row cultivator; designed to straddle your planted row, and clear weeds between the row, lightly loosen soil, and somewhat pull soil up on a corn row when it gets about 16" tall

So, its a row crop thing, not a broadcast food plot thing. You keep the tractor centered over the row, and the gap in the tines doesnt hit the crop, but the tines clean the weeds in your wheel paths. You kinda need your row spacing, and tire tracks to work properly all together. If tires are too wide; you crushing row 1 and 3, while you cultivate row 2; if that makes sense.

Maybe this shows its intent. Its not a heavy tillage tool, it just looses a couple inches at most in your row gaps, pulls weeds, ect. It is Not a tool for virgin ground, or even primary tillage in existing ground.
