Extract

Early patent records show that a rotary-hoe type of implement has been in existence since 1839 (2). The rotary hoe was used on soybeans as early as 1915, and important considerations for weed control were discussed in “Soybeans in Indiana, 1928,” (1) but its use did not become widespread until about 1929.
