Meadow plows

Meadow plows.

Meadow plows are used for plowing heavily sodden meadows. They differ from other plows mainly in the plow body. The plow body has a long blade and a screw mouldboard equipped with a long additional blade. As a result, it cuts off wide furrows, exactly turns them 180 ° [3,14 work] and hardly crumbles at all. The turf so laid out at the bottom of the furrow will be well distributed, and the top layer of soil is then easy to replace with dressing tools. Due to the high resistance, which occur during, plowing turf meadows (especially peat) and a larger working width of the plow body (into 40 cm), these plows have a slightly stronger structure than others. The most common are meadow plows made as tractor-mounted plows, one thing- or two-body. Plows with a larger number of bodies are built as trailed and work mostly with tracked tractors.
