A specialized lawnmower component designed to finely chop grass clippings is commonly installed on rotary lawnmowers. This component features a unique curved surface and cutting edge that repeatedly cuts grass clippings into smaller pieces. These finely cut clippings are then forced back into the lawn.
The primary benefit of this lawnmower blade design is the natural fertilization it provides to the lawn. By returning finely shredded clippings to the soil, the blades contribute to a process called “grasscycling.” Grasscycling reduces the need for chemical fertilizers, minimizes thatch buildup, and helps retain moisture in the soil, leading to a healthier and more vibrant lawn. Their adoption reflects an increasing awareness of sustainable lawn care practices.
