Soil-cultivating and Sowing Unit for the Restoration of Erosion-Hazardous Land

Abstract

A new three-section soil-cultivating and sowing unit is presented, capable of carrying out restoration processing of erosionhazardous land. The front frames of the first and third sections of the unit are equipped with two cultivator paws with rippers, the middle frames are equipped with two mini-mills, the rear frames are made with two sowing sections with pneumatic sowing machines and two-level skid coulters (seeding depth 4-12 cm). Closing devices and press wheels are installed behind the sowing units. The set of working bodies allows to simultaneously carry out minimal tillage, sowing seeds of two crops in a combined way with their placement at different planting depths, which contributes to the activation of the restoration process on erosion-hazardous land.
