What is a sickle Mower

• Hay and Forage Crops: Cleanly cuts alfalfa, clover, rye, oats, etc., to preserve plant health and allow fast regrowth.
• Cover Crop Termination: Used in organic no-till systems to cut and crimp without disturbing the soil.
• Pasture Maintenance: Keeps growth uniform and reduces weeds.

• Row Maintenance: Narrow sickle mowers fit between vineyard rows or orchard trees without damaging trunks or vines.
• Weed Control: Mows under trellises and low branches where rotary mowers can't reach.
• Residue Management: Leaves behind light mulch that breaks down naturally.

• Low horsepower requirements
• Cleaner cuts with less fuel use
• Less dust and debris than rotary mowers
• Quieter operation—ideal for livestock or sensitive areas
