The 2CM-2/4 potato planter is a suspension-type agricultural implement designed for integration with four-wheel tractors exceeding 120 horsepower. This multi-functional machine comprises the following key components: tractor hitch system, main frame, fertilizer application unit, ground drive wheel, seed hopper, seed metering device, herbicide spraying system, disk-type ridging mechanism, and plastic film mulching unit (with optional drip irrigation tape laying attachment).
This integrated implement performs sequential field operations including rotary tillage, precision fertilization, seed potato placement, pre-emergent herbicide application, ridge formation with contour leveling, plastic film covering with edge securing, and optional drip tape installation. The disk-type ridging mechanism ensures optimal soil displacement for tuber development while maintaining field topography.
Mounted at the rear of the tractor, the implement derives operational power through the ground wheel-driven chain transmission system that synchronizes seed metering, fertilizer application, and pesticide dispensing. The operational sequence progresses as follows: soil ridge formation → ridge surface leveling → herbicide spray application → plastic film deployment with edge compaction → final soil anchoring of film edges using specialized covering shovels.
