Abstract
The reasons for the low degree of mechanization of potato harvesting are analyzed and it is proposed to equip the potato harvester machine with a passive auger clod-crusher. It will make possible to loosen the surface layer of the field with ridges, to grind plant residues and tubers, moving them with the loosened soil to the inter-field space, excluding their access to the potato harvester. The application of a clod-crusher will contribute to the full separation of the tuberous soil mass. A number of structural and technological parameters of auger clod-crusher were determined.
