ENERGETIC AND AGRO-TECHNICAL EVALUATION OF PLOWS WITH RHOMB-SHAPED AND SERIAL WORKING BODIES OPERATION
The article presents the results of comparative testing of the moldboard plow with rhomb-shaped and serial working bodies. The designed rhomb-shaped plow working body provides high-quality smooth plowing as compared with the serial working bodies. It is shown that the use of the rhomb-shaped working bodies installed on the PLP-6-35 plow makes it possible to improve its performance and reduce power consumption in the process of soil treatment. The economic feasibility of the plow with rhomb-shaped working bodies' introduction in farm production has been proved.
