IC (57) Abstract: A rod weeder wherein the rotatable rod is provided as a quick-change rod assembly comprising the rod and rod shoes 
for being mounted to the rod shanks resulting in the ability to quickly release and change the quick-change rod assembly from the tool 
frame and the remainder of the implement. Optionally, the rod weeder may comprise disk openers placed in proximity to the gauge 
wheels, or the support beam may be pivotally movable mounted to the connecting structure such that the same is enabled to oscillate 
about an axis through a centre pivot and oriented parallel to a forward moving direction of the rod weeder.
