The stronger edges could dig through hard impenetrable soil to remove unwanted growths. When working with clay soil/ dampened soil, the fork helps in loosening the soil for better aeration.

The three edges are equally spaced to facilitate transferring plants or loosening soil without disturbing the root structure. This allows the plant to regrow healthily and easily adjust to the new position.
• The most important reason to use a fork is for weeding. It is imperative to remove weeds growing around crops from the roots. The weeds tend to absorb the nutrients and water around the crops depriving it of essential nutrients to grow.
