Secondary tillage in Gashora 🚜🌾

After breaking the hard soil during primary tillage, it was time to refine and prepare the land for planting. Secondary tillage is all about creating a smooth, fine seedbed that gives crops the best possible start.

We carefully leveled the field, broke down remaining clods, and improved soil structure for better water retention and root development.

Step by step, we’re turning preparation into productivity. 🌱πŸ’ͺ

Primary tillage in Gashora 🚜🌱

Breaking hard soil and preparing the field for the planting stage. We were able to prepare one hectare of an even and well-worked land in only ONE day.

Secondary tillage and bed making coming next.

Successful Land Preparation on a Macadamia Farm 🌳🚜

In the last week of November, we prepared 3 hectares of land on a macadamia farm, including clearing, tilling, and ridging.

The field had real constraints ⚠️ Existing macadamia trees and irrigation pipelines made big tractors impractical.

Using our small-scale machine and trained operator, we completed the work within the existing layout, navigating tight rows without damaging trees and the water pipes. 🌱

This is where the right equipment matters. Efficient land preparation is possible even in difficult perennial land when the machine is matched to the field.

Diversity in Farming Mechanization (Part Two)

We also visited a macadamia farm practicing intercropping in Gashora. The farm combines perennial macadamia trees with seasonal crops. Large tractors cannot operate efficiently between trees and mixed crop rows.

This is where Cradle contributes. We deploy small, maneuverable machines that can:
* Operate between tree rows,
* Handle tillage and weeding with precision, and
* Maintain field operation without changing farm layout

Diversity in Farm Mechanization (Part One)

We recently visited a macadamia seedling propagation farm. The farm uses a basic shelter to support seedling production. It offers limited environmental control, so operations are still manual. Temperature adjustment, irrigation, and moving seedlings between stages are all done by hand.

The result:
* High labor requirements
* Slow production cycles
* High operating costs

With a mechanized propagation system, this operation could:
* Increase seedling output by up to 3Γ—
* Reduce operating costs by roughly 40%
* Free skilled labor to focus on planning, timing, and crop health

This is where mechanization delivers real value. More output from the same space. Lower cost per unit. And better control over production.

Last year, we attended the 18th National Agricultural Show in Kigali.

Cradle provides power tillers and small tractors for small-scale farmers with fragmented plots and dry land fields.

Our machines help farmers:
* Reduce tillage time and labor costs,
* Cover more hectares quickly, and
* Operate reliably in difficult farm conditions

We demonstrated the machines and spoke directly with farmers about their operational needs.

Cradle helps small-scale farmers work faster and spend less.

We provide affordable tractors for land preparation that reduce farming cost and improve production.

If you’re a farmer, partner, or supporter of practical agricultural innovation, this journey is for you.
