Abstract
This article is devoted to the mechanization of agriculture and is aimed to achieve resource savings through the effective use of machinery and technology in lightening the burden on farmers in field farming. Rainfall or irrigation water tends to melt down the weak bonds between these soils particles and allow those individual particles to lodge closer together. Then, when the soil dries, those same particles form a tight bond that creates a soil crust. We have developed tools for breaking up the soil crust. The structure of the new device will consist of the following. A metal profile with a total length of 3.5 meters (1), 4 handles (2) are welded, one (3) working body is mounted on each handle. This means that when each working body processes cotton seedlings sprouted from one row, it is possible to further increase the number of rows with a total processing capacity of up to 5 rows. We determine the width of the unit depending on the power of the tractor and diameter of the toes. Tractors with 80-100 horsepower can handle up to 8 rows Therefore, on the basis of the above data, it can be said that the diameter of the toes should be in the range of 200-250 mm for quality softening of the layer at the required level with minimal damage to cotton seedlings.
