Ullmanna
The Ullmanna Newman is an AI-powered, camera-guided in-row weeder for precision mechanical weed control. Designed for organic and regenerative farms, it removes weeds between plants using pneumatic hoeing without damaging the crop. Compatible with a wide range of row crops and tractor systems, and distributed exclusively in the UK and Ireland by JF Hudson.
Designed for Organic and Regenerative Farming
As herbicide restrictions tighten and sustainability becomes central to farm strategy, the Ullmanna Newman delivers a fully mechanical solution aligned with organic certification and regenerative principles. It allows growers to significantly reduce labour costs and eliminate the need for chemical sprays during early growth stages.
Advanced Weed Control with AI Technology
The Ullmanna Newman offers a breakthrough in non-chemical weed control, using camera-guided technology and artificial intelligence to remove weeds between crops with speed and accuracy. It is a fully mechanical system that adapts to different plant types and spacings, making it ideal for precision weeding in crop row systems such as sugar beet, pumpkins, onions, brassicas, and herbs.

How It Works
High-resolution 2D/3D cameras detect plant rows in real time and direct pneumatic “clap-hand” elements to eliminate weeds between plants without damaging the crop. The AI learns each crop type quickly and can adapt to new crops within a few hours. This makes the Newman particularly effective for mixed crop farms, organic growers, and contractors needing flexible mechanical weed control.
Compatibility and Fitment
The Newman system is compatible with a wide range of tractor makes and can be mounted using front linkage or custom rear frames. JF Hudson provides full support, from fitment consultation to training and after-sales service.
