A CULTIVATOR IS A FARM IMPLEMENT FOR STIRRING AND PULVERIZING THE SOIL, EITHER BEFORE PLANTING OR TO REMOVE WEEDS AND TO AIRATE AND LOOSEN THE SOIL AFTER THE CROP HAS BEGUN TO GROW. THE CULTIVATOR USUALLY STIRS THE SOIL TO A GREATER DEPTH THAN DOES THE HARROW. THE CULTIVATOR IS USED IN CROP WORK OR FARMING. HORSE-DRAWN CULTIVATORS WERE INTRODUCED IN THE MID-19TH CENTURY; BY 1870 A FARMER WITH TWO HORSES COULD CULTIVATE AS MUCH AS 15 ACRES (6 HECTARES) A DAY WITH A CULTIVATER IMPLEMENT.
