Wife has a single blade plough to break up the soil on 1 Rai of land to plant herbs.

Is there any where we can get something like a petrol driven Rotavator.

Check around your area with the tractor owners. Most now buy a rotary with the tractor. Here they charge 200 to 250 baht per rai.

something like on your photo is available here in Thailand too...in fact i have a similar thingy.

the price is about 15k for new, less for 2nd hand.

it works fine, but as IA said, pay for a guy with tractor is the easier way.

however, the disadvantage is, that most tractor guy wont bother much with 1 rai, or charge extra, unless they happen to be right next door.

i found that nowadays lots of thai wont be bothered with a small job, paying 300-500thb...or not in my area at least. either all very rich so they dont want money, or all very lazy. in the end the job isnt done, and that matters for me.

Buy 2 long-handled hoes and employ 2 BSBs (big strong boys). They'll turn over 1 Rai in 2 days. 1500 Baht and you've still got the hoes. The locals are happy. Throw in a whiskey bonus, 100 Baht, and they'll come running every time you call.

This isn't rocket science people. 'And Thai people are more than happy to oblige, 'cause they really are good people. (Don't try this in Bangkok)

Regards.

The thing is the 1 Rai is never done all at once its set up in 2 metre by 40 metre strips for staggered planting times.

The wife has a damaged hip joint so I,d like to get a little rotavator and do the job myself.

Tingtong do you have a photo or info or info about availability.

Thanks everyone for helping very much appreciated.
