Swedish term or phrase: rovtvättar och rovskärare
Detta utvecklades till en produktion av bl.a. rovtvättar och rovskärare, som senare utvecklades till styrbara harvar som användes på regionens många fruktträdgårdar.

I've searched high and low for both terms. They would seem to refer to very ancient forms of ploughing tools, which were later replaced by a harrow, drawn behind a tractor.
Any help would be highly appreciated!

Explanation:
What do I get for one term?

The thought struck me reading Agneta's reference, but when root veggies are ready to harvest the SOP is to cut/burn of the tops off (as in haulm or shaw) before digging them up. This fun reference describes it (ttp://farmingsimulator.wikia.com/wiki/Haulm_Toppers_(Farming_Simulator_15), or see https://www.grimme.com/ie/products/erntevorbereitung-kartoff...

Don't really find this for 'shaw' but it fits the definition -- tho I've never heard the word.
