Short Description

The Tata Agrico Fork Powrah (FP-1.6) is a high-performance agricultural tool combining the digging power of a powrah with the soil-penetrating capabilities of a fork, designed for medium-duty cultivation and soil aeration.

Long Description

The FP-1.6 features a forged carbon steel head with a precise weight of 1.60 kg. This hybrid tool is engineered with strong, sharp tines designed to penetrate hard, compacted, or stony ground where a solid blade might struggle. The head is forged as a single piece to ensure maximum structural integrity, preventing the tines from bending under heavy leverage. The design includes a reinforced eye for secure handle fitment, ensuring the tool can withstand the prying forces required to loosen soil or lift organic matter. The carbon steel is heat-treated to maintain the sharpness of the fork tips while providing the toughness needed for repetitive agricultural use.

Why Choose This Product?

The 1.60 kg weight offers an ideal balance between penetrating power and ease of use, reducing operator fatigue during long working hours. Unlike standard solid-blade powrahs, the fork design allows for superior aeration and root-safe weeding. It is the tool of choice for farmers and landscapers who need to work in clay-heavy or rocky soils where a standard hoe would bounce off the surface. The high-quality Tata Agrico forging ensures a long service life even in the most abrasive soil conditions.
