It looks rather like a furrow cracker of British make/design. RRI 4000 series rubber trees were particularly prone to white root disease; affected plantings were felled and the stumps removed. Furrow plows were then used to expose the diseased roots for manual collection and burning. The job of the furrow cracker was to break up clods of earth.
