Abstract
A method for weeding between rows of crops and between individual plants in each row whereby a weeding rod is suspended at a proximal portion thereof and left un-suspended at a distal portion thereof whereby the suspension keeps the distal portion and proximal portion in the same horizontal plane. The method further comprises the step of ensuring that the weeding rod has a rounded cross section in a transverse plane with respect to a length axis thereof between the proximal portion and the distal portion and the further step of advancing the weeding rod below ground level in a direction along a ground plane.

A method for weeding between rows of crops with a weeding rod suspended from a vehicle part at a proximal portion of the weeding rod and left un-suspended at a distal portion thereof, the distal portion and the proximal portion in the same horizontal plane, the method comprising the steps of:
- ensuring that the weeding rod has a rounded cross section in a transverse plane with respect to a length axis thereof between the proximal portion and the distal portion;
- and
- advancing the weeding rod below ground level in a direction of motion along a ground plane at a speed between 0.3 and 5 km/h,
- wherein the weeding rod comprises a vertical part connected to the proximal portion.
