THE METHODE
Circlefarming believes in the combination and qualities of human labor, existing tools and new technology to make agriculture attractive again.
Farm more than one field
THE HOPPER
A single field doesn't need an arm working on it all day, every day. Between planting, weeding and harvesting there are stretches where the crop is simply growing, and the arm has nothing left to do there for now.
Rather than sitting idle in an empty field, it hops over to the next one instead, carried on a set of adjustable wheels mounted close to the circle's center that lift and move it smoothly from field to field.
That means one arm isn't tied to a single plot. The same arm that seeded one field can be weeding another by the afternoon, working across a handful of nearby fields instead of waiting around in just one, getting far more use out of a single machine than a fixed setup ever could.
