Development and Evaluation of Multifunctional Tillage Implement

To improve the mechanization level in India, a low-cost tractor that can be afforded by normal farmer and also suitable for Indian land size is very much required. One way to reduce cost of optimum utilization power any agricultural operation. For these matching, implements are required developed which use rated optimally. further operation, two tillage operations combined combining implements. Hence, Cultivator Disk Harrow (C-DH) was tested Research Farm College Agricultural Engineering, Madakasira. The tests were carried out with speeds three different depths each speed. plots 50×25m selected test parameters such as speed time travel 25m length, turning time, depth width operation recorded. Quality work judged Mass Median Diameter (MMD) soil aggregates collected before after operating C-DH implement plot conducting sieve analysis. From results, average field capacity found 0.30 0.61 ha/h at 1.8 3.4 km/h respectively. overall performance expressed term Performance Index 548.54 13 cm km/h.
