Abstract

The maximum prevention control for both moth to reach tubers and exposure tubers to lightmechanically through the constructed shape of the potato hill by each potato planter was the main aim of this study. For this purpose the performance of a modified potato planter, equipped with designed bedding unit (Batana) was investigated. The investigation was accomplished through comparison with other two automatic common used potato planters. Nicola,Spunta and Lady Rosetta potato seed varietiesunder drip irrigation at planting spring season cultivated in sandy soil within planting distance intra-row of 25cm and planting depths 3, 5, 7 cmfrom soil surface were the material cultivar of the investigated planters. The performance evaluation included mechanical as well as work ratesat different planting speeds for the compared planters and yield components. The mechanical performance included (total traction force in kN and total power in kW,fuel and specific fuel consumptionin L/h and L/kW.h,tractor drive wheel slip in %,field capacity in fed/hand efficiency in %) as an average values. Yield components includedthe total tuber yield, tuber moth infestation and tuber greening inton/fed.
