Mould Board Plough
MB Plough is used for primary tillage
operation. It helps to dig the soil and invert
it for quick decaying of surface trash and
stubbles. It has very less specific draft
requirement as compared to the country plough.
The draft requirement of the plough depends
upon its width as well as depth of ploughing
and accordingly can be pulled either by a pair
of bullock or a single bullock. The 25 cm
plough has been designed for hilly region as
an improvement over indigenous plough. The
depth of operation varies between 10-15 cm
depending on soil condition. The ploughing
efficiency and soil inversion percentage is
65.0% and 62.2% as compared to 55.6% and 38.7%
in case of indigenous plough respectively. The
field capacity is 0.25 ha/day and cost Rs.
1200/-. |
