Master's Thesis at the University of Basrah Examines the Impact of Adding Blades to the Plow
A master's thesis at the College of Agriculture, University of Basrah, investigated the impact of adding blades to the developed chisel plow on mechanical performance indicators and some characteristics of clay soil under different operational conditions.
The research by Abdul-Salam Jawad Kazem aims to determine the impact of four types of sub-cutting blades added to the developed plow and various blade widths on mechanical performance indicators and characteristics of clay soil.
The study concluded that the sub-cutting blade type with a 15 cm width excelled in recording the lowest values for pulling force, slip percentage, fuel consumption rate, and power lost due to slipping. Meanwhile, the 20 cm width blade excelled in actual field productivity and the volume of disturbed soil.
