A sweep assembly for an agricultural tillage implement includes a sweep having a blade and a neck extending from the blade. The neck has a cavity configured to receive an adapter, the cavity is formed in part by a forward left contact surface, a forward right contact surface, a rearward left contact surface, and a rearward right contact surface, and the neck slopes laterally inwardly along a first direction extending from a top opening of the neck toward the blade. Furthermore, a left contact surface angle between the forward left contact surface and the rearward left contact surface is less than or equal to 60 degrees. In addition, a right contact surface angle between the forward right contact surface and the rearward right contact surface is less than or equal to 60 degrees.

Tractor implements can work the ground in a proper and efficient manner to ensure the ground is ready for planting. The tractor implements can be arranged in various, specific manners, in series behind a tractor, depending on field conditions. For example, the tractor may pull a single disc positioned ahead of each ripper disposed on a ripper implement. Behind the ripper, a roller implement may be disposed for lifting, rolling and breaking up the soil. An optional disc may be provided forward of each roller blade assembly. Behind the roller implement, one or more finishers, such as a disc, a multi-disc, a chopper, a basket, a double basket, a knife, a deflector, or the like, may be used to finish the worked soil. Soil prepared by such implements have been shown to significantly increase crop yield.

A hoeing device includes: a frame intended to be coupled to a vehicle for towing the hoeing device; and a deformable parallelogram having comprising an upper beam and a lower beam carrying at least one hoeing tool as well as an element for running on the ground. The beams being connected by at least one pair of connecting rods, the connecting rods extending from one beam to the other while being inclined, from the upper beam to the lower beam, forwards in a forward direction of movement of the hoeing device. A connecting member is inserted between the frame and the deformable parallelogram.

An agricultural implement includes a shank assembly having an attachment section and a ground-engaging shank. Furthermore, the agricultural implement includes first and second fasteners coupling the attachment section to a frame member of the agricultural implement. Additionally, the agricultural implement includes a first load sensor configured to generate data indicative of a first load being applied to the first fastener by the shank assembly. Moreover, the agricultural implement includes a second load sensor configured to generate data indicative of a second load being applied to the second fastener by the shank assembly. In addition, the agricultural implement includes a computing system configured to determine when the ground-engaging shank is bent based on the data generated by the first and second load sensors.

In an embodiment, a tillage ripper point includes a body having a nose, an upper surface, lateral sides, and a rear surface. The tillage ripper point also includes a wear indicator configured to wear in a controlled fashion and thereby indicate to a user that the tillage ripper point has reached the end of its usable lifespan.

In an embodiment, a tillage ripper point includes a body having a nose, an upper surface, lateral sides, and a rear surface. The tillage ripper point also includes two wings, each of which extends from a lateral side of the body and includes at least a top surface having a leading edge that is at least partially curvilinear with a first end located on the body.
