SKU: SMA-117-RS480 Economy Rice Shovel with Stamped Steel Head and Wood Handle

Whether you're loading grain trucks during harvest, cleaning out bins, or moving feed around the barn, a good rice shovel is one of those tools you'll reach for every day. This economy model gives you the functionality you need without breaking the budget—perfect for smaller operations or when you need a backup shovel that won't sit idle for long.

What You're Getting

• Stamped steel head that's 20% lighter than comparable forged models, so you can work longer without wearing yourself out
• 48-inch wood handle gives you the reach and leverage you need for efficient scooping and loading
• Traditional rice shovel design with curved sides that hold more grain and make loading easier
• Economy construction that delivers solid performance at a price that makes sense

Built for Real Farm Work

Rice shovels got their name from their original use in rice mills, but they've become the go-to tool for handling all kinds of grain, feed, and bulk materials around the farm. The curved sides and deep scoop design make them ideal for loading grain trucks, cleaning out storage bins, moving chicken feed, or handling seed corn.

Made to Last

The stamped steel head construction keeps the weight down while still giving you the durability you need for regular farm use. The wood handle absorbs shock better than metal and gives you a comfortable grip even during long loading sessions.

Good to Know

This is the economy version of AgSmart's rice shovel line—it'll handle daily farm tasks just fine, but if you're doing heavy commercial grain handling, you might want to consider the forged-head model for extra durability. Keep the handle dry when storing to prevent splitting, and a light sanding now and then will keep it smooth in your hands.
