We've been elevating the tillage tools game since the early 1970's. As five generation farmers back then, we saw the need for advanced tillage tools especially suited for California soils and growing conditions that were not available in the market place.

So in 1973, we designed and built our very own heavy duty chisel with a unique ripper shank design (one that would become an industry standard) in our uncle Irv's shop.

When local farmers saw the job our chisel was doing, they asked us to build them one. We did, more as a "favor" to them and as a sideline to our primary focus at that time - a diversified orchard, row and field crop farming operating in the California Delta region.

Rod and Stan Dolk of Dolk Tractor company saw the outstanding performance of our chisels and asked to be our first dealer. They convinced us to design and build a heavy duty, high clearance plow especially for West Coast growers and the higher horsepower tractors being introduced at that time. We did, and the rest is history.

Wilcox Agri-Products grew to become a leading west coast manufacturer of advanced ag tillage tools by the latter part of the 1970’s. And we’ve been expanding and improving our ag tillage tool line ever since.
