• A farm with a pasture or large grassy areas requires the right implement to cut down those wide swaths of grass. You can attach a round-back rotary cutter to the back of a tractor and perform the job handily. The back end of the rotary cutter may is rounded, but professionals in the industry simply call it a "rotary cutter."
  
  

Attaches to a Tractor

• A rotary Cutter is attached to the back of a tractor so that the tractor pulls the rotary cutter along the area to clear. The flat blades are attached to a disk that hooks on to the frame in a horizontal position and parallel to the ground. As the round-back rotary cutter is dragged behind the tractor, the blades spin to cut grass and brush from 1 to 4 inches wide, depending on the size of the blades.
  
  

Maintains Pastures and Ditches

• The rotary cutter can help farmers and ranchers with the maintenance of pastures and ditches. These heavy-duty mowers can cut down saplings and thick grasses. You can also see them in use at state parks or any place that has a large grassy area that requires mowing.
  
  

Reduces Mowing Time

• A rotary cutter can cut a large swath of grass and brush with better ease than a regular lawn mower. It can reduce the amount of time needed to complete the job as well. The heavy-duty chain curtain that hangs on the front of some models of rotary cutters prevents rocks from spitting up and hitting the driver.
