IMPLEMENTATION OF THE DESIGN OF A SOLID ORGANIC FERTILIZER SPREADER

Based on the analysis of scientific publications and patent sources, it was found that spreaders with vertical spreading shafts demonstrate better technological and operational characteristics compared to devices where the shafts are located horizontally. At the same time, the quality of fertilizer distribution across the field - in particular, the uniformity of application - still does not fully meet modern agrotechnical requirements. In order to increase the uniformity of fertilizer application, a new design of the spreading mechanism is proposed, which includes a set of two-element augers that perform rotational motion with different angular speeds.
