Moldboard Plow 1L-420 – Heavy-Duty Agricultural Plowing Equipment for Tractors
Product Name: 1L-420 Moldboard Plow
Suitable For: Primary tillage; soil inversion; weed burial; stubble cleaning; seedbed preparation in small to medium-sized fields.
Product Overview
The 1L-420 Moldboard Plow (commonly referred to as a "铧式犁" or Moldboard Plow in Chinese agricultural classification) is a traditional and highly effective primary tillage implement designed for complete soil inversion. Unlike disc plows that roll through the soil, the moldboard plow uses curved shares to lift, turn, and flip the soil completely, burying surface residue, weeds, and crop stubble deep beneath the surface.
Engineered for tractors in the 35-45 horsepower range, the 1L-420 is perfectly matched to the medium-compact tractors commonly found on small to medium-sized farms. With a working width of 800mm and 4 moldboard bodies, this plow offers excellent soil inversion capabilities in a compact, efficient package. At just 130kg, it is lightweight yet durable, placing minimal stress on smaller tractors while delivering professional-quality tillage.

Detailed Features and Benefits
1. Three-Point Linkage
The 1L-420 is equipped with a standard three-point hitch, compatible with both Category I and smaller Category II tractors in the 30-50 horsepower class. This universal mounting system allows for quick attachment and detachment, while hydraulic control enables precise adjustment of plowing depth directly from the tractor cabin. The linkage also allows the plow to follow ground contours naturally, ensuring consistent depth across undulating terrain.
2. Optimized Working Width
With a working width of 800mm (0.8 meters) , this plow is designed for efficient primary tillage in smaller fields.
-
Coverage: The 800mm span allows farmers to cover ground at a reasonable pace while maintaining the maneuverability needed for smaller plots.
-
Precision: The narrower width is ideal for working along field edges and in irregularly shaped fields where larger implements would be cumbersome.
3. Deep Tillage Capability (200-250mm)
The ability to plow consistently to depths of 200-250mm (8-10 inches) is a key feature of the 1L-420:
-
Soil Inversion: At this depth, surface residue, weeds, and stubble are completely buried, where they decompose and contribute to soil organic matter.
-
Hardpan Prevention: Regular deep plowing helps prevent the formation of compacted layers near the surface.
-
Root Zone Preparation: The deep, loose soil created by moldboard plowing provides an ideal environment for root development.
4. Four Moldboard Bodies
The heart of the 1L-420 lies in its four moldboard plow bodies:
-
Curved Design: Each body features a carefully engineered curved moldboard surface that lifts and turns the soil efficiently with minimal draft.
-
Share Points: The detachable share points are made from wear-resistant steel and can be replaced when worn, extending the life of the plow.
-
Complete Inversion: The moldboard design ensures that soil is completely inverted (turned over), not just mixed. This is essential for effective weed burial and residue management.
-
Furrow Creation: The four bodies create clean, uniform furrows that improve field drainage and soil warming in spring.
5. Lightweight Construction (130kg)
Weighing only 130 kg, the 1L-420 is exceptionally light for a four-bottom moldboard plow. This offers several advantages:
-
Tractor Compatibility: It places minimal stress on the rear axle and hydraulic system of 35-45hp tractors.
-
Fuel Efficiency: The lightweight design reduces draft requirements, leading to lower fuel consumption.
-
Soil Compaction: The lighter overall weight minimizes soil compaction in the field.
-
Easy Handling: The implement is easy to mount, dismount, and store.
6. Adjustable Plowing Width
Many models in the 1L series feature adjustable furrow widths, allowing the operator to fine-tune the working width to match soil conditions and tractor power. This flexibility ensures optimal performance across different field types.
Ideal Applications
1. Primary Tillage for Row Crops
For farmers growing vegetables, corn, soybeans, or small grains, the 1L-420 provides the deep, clean tillage needed to prepare the perfect seedbed. The complete soil inversion buries weed seeds and crop residue, giving the new crop a clean start.
2. Weed and Residue Management
In fields with heavy weed pressure or significant crop stubble, moldboard plowing is the most effective method of burial. The 1L-420 ensures that weeds and residue are turned under, where they decompose rather than competing with the new crop.
3. Garden and Small Field Preparation
For market gardeners, smallholders, and hobby farmers, the 1L-420 offers professional-level tillage in a compact package. It is ideal for preparing vegetable plots, flower beds, and small grain fields.
4. Soil Improvement
By turning under organic matter and exposing fresh soil to weathering, moldboard plowing helps improve soil structure, aeration, and fertility over time.
Conclusion
The 1L-420 Moldboard Plow is a reliable, efficient, and effective primary tillage tool for small to medium-sized farms. Perfectly matched to 35-45hp tractors, it offers a useful 800mm working width, deep 200-250mm plowing depth, and the complete soil inversion provided by 4 moldboard bodies. At just 130kg, it is lightweight yet durable, delivering professional results without overloading smaller tractors. For farmers who value traditional, thorough tillage, the 1L-420 is an outstanding choice.
