The Rotostar is the Oliver Agro inter-plant weeder specifically designed for head-forming vegetable crops: lettuce, radicchio, cabbage, broccoli, chard, squash. Thanks to a patented dual-rotor system, it works not only in the inter-row space but also between plants on the same row.
Sugar beet seed production is a highly specialised cultivation requiring deep agronomic knowledge and advanced machinery. One of its most critical challenges — the mechanical control of volunteer sugar beet plants that germinate spontaneously from seed lost during the previous harvest — has found an effective solution in the Rotosark inter-row weeder from Oliver Agro.

Modern agriculture requires highly specialised solutions to optimise production and reduce weed impact. Oliver Agro, with its comprehensive range of agricultural machinery, offers specific equipment to meet the requirements of every crop type. Oliver Agro is the only manufacturer in the world with a complete range of inter-row weeders covering every crop — from the Read More
The Rotofilm by Oliver Agro is the inter-row weeder designed specifically for plastic mulch crops: strawberry, courgette, melon, watermelon and all vegetables grown on mulch film. Thanks to rubber-coated rotors, it works right up to the edge of the film without tearing or wrinkling it — a unique solution on the market for mechanical weeding Read More
Weed control is one of the fundamental operations in farming, essential for keeping crops free from weeds that compete for water, nutrients and light. Growing environmental awareness — and increasingly strict regulations on chemical herbicide use — has driven demand for effective, sustainable weed control solutions. Oliver Agro, Italian manufacturer with over 40 years of Read More
European and national funding programmes represent a concrete opportunity for farmers who want to modernise their agricultural machinery. With significant resources allocated to the subtheme of “modernisation of agricultural machinery enabling the introduction of precision farming techniques”, inter-row weeders and precision mechanical weeding machinery are fully eligible. Here is how to benefit. What EU and Read More
The Rotostar is the Oliver Agro inter-plant weeder designed specifically for head-forming vegetable crops: lettuce, radicchio, cabbage, broccoli, beetroot, courgette. Thanks to a patented dual-rotor system, it works not only in the inter-row space but also in the inter-plant space — between one plant and the next on the same row — the most difficult Read More
Weed control is one of the fundamental operations in farming, essential for keeping crops free from weeds that compete for water, nutrients and light. Two main mechanical weeding techniques exist: pre-emergence and post-emergence, each with specific characteristics and advantages. Oliver Agro, Italian manufacturer of precision inter-row weeders, offers mechanical weeding solutions for both pre-emergence (false Read More
Soil surface crusting is one of the most critical problems in horticultural farming: the hard layer that forms after heavy rain or irrigation blocks water and air penetration to the roots, damages emerging seedlings and creates ideal conditions for weeds. Oliver Agro integrates the crust-breaking function directly into its precision inter-row weeders — solving two Read More
Crop rotation — alternating different species on the same field — is a fundamental agronomic technique for rebalancing soil biological, chemical and physical properties. But when the rotation crop (in this case soya) becomes a weed in the following maize crop, the agronomic technique risks becoming a problem. The solution? Mechanical weeding with inter-row weeders Read More
The inter-row weeder is a fundamental tool for effective weed management and soil cultivation. Like all agricultural equipment, it requires regular maintenance and timely replacement of key components to maintain peak performance. Oliver Agro — Italian manufacturer of precision inter-row weeders — supplies original spare parts for its entire range, guaranteeing durability, efficiency and reliability. Read More
