田间管理农具，也叫中耕农具，主要包括旱地和水田两种。旱地中耕农具有锄、漏锄等，水田中耕农具有耘荡等。

　　锄：中耕除草农具。锄的种类非常丰富，有小锄与大锄之分，适合不同的田块和不同的作物。用小锄时，农民得蹲着锄地，用大锄时，农民可站立使用。

　　漏锄：又称露锄。北方旱地中耕除草工具。清代开始使用。它比一般锄稍小，刃宽三寸多，刃边至中空处约寸多长。其特点是锄地不翻土，锄过之后，土地平整，有利于保墒，使用轻便。

　　耘荡：又称耘耥，水田中耕农具，开始在元代江浙地区使用。现在广泛应用于南方水田。

　　灌溉工具。最初的浇灌工具就是瓮、缶、罐之类器具。后来发明了桔槔、戽斗、辘轳、翻车、筒车等。桔槔、筒车我国南北都用，戽斗、翻车基本上在南方地区使用，而辘轳在北方地区用得更多一些。

　　桔槔：提水用具，发明于商代时期。它利用杠杆原理将水提出井口，省力。汲水前，长杆系空桶的一端较轻，需要人拉系桶的绳子，才能使桶进入井下。当桶灌满水后，此时桶与长杆另一端重物的重量差不多，只要稍稍用力上提，水桶就会被提上来，此时人提水会感到很轻松。

　　戽斗：是一种小型人力排灌农具，戽斗在水位落差不大的地方，既可用于排，也可用于灌。戽斗制作简单，制作材料是柳筲或木罂，两边分别拴以绳索，二人齐心协力戽水。

　　Management agricultural tool in the field, also called cultivation agricultural tool, mainly includes categories of dry farmland and paddy field. In the dry farmland, cultivation agricultural tool includes hoe and lou hoe. In the paddy field, cultivation agricultural tool includes cultivation dang, etc.

　　Hoe: a weeding tool in cultivation. There are many types of hoes. Different sizes of hoes are appropriate for different fields and crops. When using small hoes, peasants have to squat down while when using large hoes, peasants could stand up.

　　Lou hoe: Also called Lu hoe. It is a weeding tool in dry farmland of north China. It has been used since Qing Dynasty. It is smaller than normal hoe. The blade is more than three inches wide. The distance between blade and the hollow part is more than 1 inch. It could hoe the fields but not turn over the soil. After the land is hoed, the soil becomes leveled. It is convenient for utilization.

　　Cultivation dang: Also called cultivation tang. It is an agricultural tool in paddy rice. It starts to be used in Zhejiang Region in Yuan Dynasty. It is now extensively used in the south.

　　Irrigation tool. The earliest irrigation tools included earthen jar, crock with narrow opening and jar. Then, there came the inventions of shadoof, bailing bucket, wheel, turning over cart and tube-shaped cart, etc. Both shadoof and tube-shaped cart were used in north and south parts of China. Bailing bucket and turning over cart were basically used in south region while wheel was more used in north region.

　　Shadoof: a tool to water lifting. It was invented in Shang Dynasty. By the principle of lever, water is lifted from well. Therefore, it is very labor-saving. Before water is drawn, the long pole is tied to one end of the empty bucket. It requires a person to pull the rope that the bucket could enter the well. When the bucket is full of water, the weight of the bucket is similar to the weight of article on the other end. Water will be lifted if the bucket is slightly lifted. At this time, water lifting is very simple.

　　Bailing bucket: It is a small manpower irrigation and drainage agricultural tool. Located in places with small water drop, bailing bucket is not only used in irrigation, but also in drainage. Bailing bucket is simply made. It is made by willow basket or wooden ying. Tied with ropes on both ends, bailing bucket is used by two people to bail water.
