Abstract

The research aims to develop a seed drill for precise seeding on a ridge with drip irrigation. The basic principles and methods of classical mechanics, mathematical analysis, and statistics were used in this study. The existing technologies of sowing cotton seeds are analyzed. The authors have developed a method of seeding the cotton on the crest with drip irrigation and drill for its implementation, including the working body for fertilizer, shaper gasket comb attached to him Coulter, sigortac for seeding, packer roller, device for laying irrigation hose, and sigortac for sealing hose soil. Combining the operations of sowing cotton seeds with the simultaneous formation of ridges, fertilizing, and drip irrigation helps to reduce labor costs and increase the yield of raw cotton. This reduces the consumption of irrigation water, simplifies the design of the irrigation hose, and increases its service life

Highlights

  • Success in the cultivation of crops largely depends on the timing and quality of tillage [1], sowing [1, 2] and harvesting crops [3], and the latter, in turn, - on the methods of its implementation and the perfection of the design of machines [4,5,6]

  • The cotton growers of our Republic were faced with the task of changing the technology of growing cotton, which would allow for high-quality sowing at an early date, complete the harvest in October, and make it possible to carry out all the necessary fieldwork in full for the year's harvest, before the onset of inclement

  • The study's objectives are to achieve the straightness of seed sowing, the formation of a compacted bed directly during sowing with simultaneous targeted application of fertilizer for seeds, laying and sealing of irrigation hoses on the ridge of the bed

Summary

Introduction

Success in the cultivation of crops largely depends on the timing and quality of tillage [1], sowing [1, 2] and harvesting crops [3], and the latter, in turn, - on the methods of its implementation and the perfection of the design of machines [4,5,6]. Cotton has to be replanted on the part of the area, which leads to a decrease in its yield, delayed harvesting, and higher production costs To avoid the impact of adverse weather conditions on cotton growth in several regions of our Republic, sowing on ridges has begun instead of sowing cotton on a smooth field [29] With this technology, after heavy precipitation, puddles do not form over the seedbed. As the experience of sowing cotton along the ridges has shown, it is very difficult to carry out it with existing sowing units since the seeder's coulter does not have the necessary support here [ 31]
