The video "Farmers and their Weed Control Machines" from the University
of Vermont offers some examples of tractor-drawn cultivating tools for
getting the edges and in between rows of plastic mulch. For more
information see:

http://www.uvm.edu/vtvegandberry/Videos/weedvideo.htm

They have several other videos as well such as ones on cover cropping
and marketing.
