Impact of Rotavator as a Conservation Tillage Implement



Tillage is on the basic farming operation. It is generally done due to creating an ideal seedbed preparation and plant growth, this operation includes plowing, harrowing, and mechanical destruction of weeds and soil crust, etc. Rotavator is used for tillage and inter-culture operation in the preparation of seedbed requires three to four passes. Due to this, it minimizes time and energy up to 25% in the field operation in comparison to another implement. However, if we see in the context of Indian Agriculture where tractors are frequently used in 26-65 hp by a huge number of farmers, it is necessary that matching size of rotavator be available for different power ranges of tractors. Rotavator is mostly available in the size of 120-150 mm, which is suitable for a tractor having 45 hp and above. Also, due to soil type, texture, Irrigation, cropping pattern, etc., it is also necessary that different designs of rotavators require to suit particular cropping conditions.

Rotavator / Rotary Tiller Overview – Uses and Functions

A rotary tiller also popularly known as rotavator is farm equipment used for soil preparation before planting seeds. It is used as a tractor attachment pulled behind it to break up topsoil. It consists of rotating blades also known as rotors attached either to the rear or front of a tiller. These rotating blades spin and cut through the soil to make it ideal for planting. It breaks clods, moisturizes and pulverize the soil providing a healthy environment for plants growth and to get a high yield.



The rotary tiller is mainly used to cultivate the land and is very popular among farmers as it works effectively. It is cheaper in terms of maintenance, economical to use and also requires less space. The type of rotavator a farmer needs to use depends on the texture of the soil. Rotavators can be set to operate at different speeds that allow rotors or blades to move slower or faster. A farmer should try attest run first of a rotary tiller on the soil to decide its speed. A farmer not only needs to be careful when it comes to choosing the right rotavator for his farm but the attention also needed to use and maintain it properly.

Uses and Function of a Rotavator or Rotary Tiller:

·         Break the clods in the soil and loosen it giving a smooth surface to topsoil.

·         Prepares a perfect of seedbed for sowing.

·         Turning the topsoil allows plants to absorb maximum amount of nutrient available in the soil.

·         Helps in increasing the crop yield.

·         Kills the weeds and removes old crop residue.

Rotavator is versatile machinery that can be used in primary as well as secondary tillage which makes it suitable for different types of soils. It is mostly used for cultivating vegetables and in paddy field.

Tractor Trailer | Tractor Trailer Overview

 

Tractor Trailer


trailer is an unpowered engineering vehicle towed by a powered vehicle. It is generally used for the transport of goods and materials.


tractor trailer is one of the most popular tractor accessories, used for loading/unloading agricultural goods or other construction material from one place to another. it is a tractor driven farm implements. It saves time and human effort and makes productivity double. In the era of mechanization, there are various types of trailers used as per requirement. Here are some of the trailer types are listed below:


Tractor Trailer Types


3 Way Tipping Trailer


  • Ideal for loading/unloading goods/materials produced by farm or construction work.
  • 3 sided tipping design with a single-cylinder, due to this it is easy for unloading the goods.
  • high-grade hub, axle, bearings & 3-way tipping mechanism increase durability & reliability of the trailer.
  • Easily transportable as it gets easily attached/ mounted with the tractor

What is a Disc Harrow? Disc Harrow Type.

In the current era of mechanization, farmers are using various types of tillage implement like a rotary tiller, ripper, power harrow, plow,cultivators, etc according to the need and soil conditions, disc harrow is one of them. It is a secondary tillage implement used for soil preparation for planting or sowing purposes.


Disc Harrow - It is one of the popular tractor implement attached on the tow hook. It helps in breaking up clods and surface crusts, It also enhances soil granulation and surface uniformity, It prevents weed growth and destroys existing weeds. The major benefit of using a disc harrow, it till the soil where crops are to be planted. It is also used to chop up unwanted weeds or crop residues.


disc harrows are tractor-driven and are supported either by a three-point lift or hydraulically by wheels. The large ones have side sections that can be raised vertically or that fold up to allow easier road transport or to provide better storage configurations.

Reversible MB Plough Overview

 In the era of mechanization, Farmar uses various types of farm machinery like a combine harvester, rotavator, cultivator, baler, mulcher, seeder, plough and many more to perform farming activity efficiently. 


reversible plough is a specially designed farm plough use for turning the soil level upside and downside, It can directly mount with a tractor. It is one of the hydraulically mechanized farm implements used for the preparation of the soil. It is ideal for use in hard and dry trashy stumpy land conditions. It works from both sides & it automatically changes the position while plowing hence it minimize our time & fuel consumption. It is ideal for a big piece of land.


reversible mb plough



Benefits of Reversible Plough


  • Specially designed plough use for turning the soil level from both sides
  • It performs the toughest plowing job due to his excellent penetration power.
  • It widely used in stony & rooted soils

Features of Reversible Plough


  • Extra furrow or repositioning units of plough allow extra clearance quickly and easily.
  • Wear-resistant steel bottoms including bar points that help to perform the toughest plowing jobs

Tractor Harvester | Combine Harvester

The combine harvester is one of the great inventions in the history of the agriculture machinery industry. Most of us even don't imagine this type of invention, and It has a huge impact on our life.




So, now what is combine harvester exactly? 

It is versatile farm machinery that’s designed to efficiently harvest a variety of crops—separating straw from the nutrients left in it.

In the era of mechanization, the combine is considered as one of the most economically important labor-saving inventions. In fact, combine harvester is responsible for significantly reducing the number of individuals required to farm.

It is used to harvest a variety of grains such as wheat, oats, maize, sorghum, rice, soybeans, sunflowers, and many other crops, combine works as all in one machine. 

Instead of using separate agricultural machinery for different farming activities like threshing, winnowing and grain reaping the harvester can combine all these farming activities into a single step, due to this fact in the modern era, the combine is considered as one of the most popular labor-saving inventions.
