SUBSTANTIATION OF THE PARAMETERS OF THE DEEP LOOSENER– FURROW OPENER IMPLEMENT FOR A TREE SEEDLING PLANTING MACHINE (2026)
The article presents the results of theoretical studies on substantiating the parameters of the chisel (working body) of a deep loosener–furrow opener developed for a machine that performs continuous planting of fruit tree seedlings. Based on the obtained results, it was determined that, in order to prevent the formation of a compacted furrow with dense walls at the bottom of the cultivated soil layer and to ensure soil deformation and fragmentation processes at the required level, the width of the shank of the deep loosener –furrow opener should be at least 10 cm, and its length should be in the range of 9,3-8,8 cmM.
