Meaning & usage
An implement used for breaking up the earth at the base of a plant, possibly a type of pickaxe, mattock, hoe, or spade
Where this word comes from
From excōdicō (“to dig the earth around the base of a vine”), according to White (who argues that the frequently cited alternative proposal of derivation from excūdō (“to beat, hammer out”) is semantically inappropriate). In Isidore's time, the process of vowel prosthesis had led to the conflation in pronunciation of the prefix "ex" with word-initial "s" before a consonant.
