About Feldklasse
Feldklasse GmbH, based in Meerbusch, develops and manufactures hoes for vegetable cultivation. Founded in 2018, the company offers four machine variants: the Rukaby for bed cultivation (row spacing from 5 cm, working to within 1 cm of the row), the Pacorel for ridged cultivation with double and triple rows, the Felbyco with optimized share hoes for row spacing from 7 cm, and the Zurama, a selective hoe with AI-based plant recognition that removes weeds across the entire area both within and between rows. The rotating hoeing technology combines toothed discs for soil loosening with rotating shares that turn twice as fast, levering out weeds and cleaning themselves of soil. Optional equipment includes hydraulic steering and camera guidance for precise row control. Value-added services include consulting, custom builds, direct sales, delivery and technical service. Customers come from conventional and organic vegetable growing; machines are showcased in France and Switzerland in addition to Germany.

Technology and Operating Principle
Rotating toothed discs
Loosen the soil without pushing soil aside, thus protecting young plants.
Rotating shares
Rotate twice as fast as the toothed discs and lever out root and seed weeds.
AI plant recognition
Optical systems (with Ullmanna) detect plants and control selective weed removal within and between rows.
