Award-winning electrical device welcomed by those who hate weeds

For those who hate weeds, the Touch Pro professional hand weeder will be of interest, after it won an innovation awards at the recent LAMMA 2017 machinery show in Peterborough, England.

The Farm Machinery and Equipment Innovation Award went to Ubiqutek’s device, which uses electricity to kill weeds.

Touch Pro uses electricity to boil weeds from tip to root, turning any water content in the weed into steam, but without damaging surrounding plants or soil.
