| Abstract | ||
| A field experiment was conducted at Abu-Ghraib during 2007-2008 to evaluate the effect of some plows, and tractor speeds on machinery performance and soil mean weight diameter.In this study, two plows were used; mold board plow and chisel plow, Two tractors, MF- 650 and New Holland, were used as machinery unit for plowing silty clay loam soil by using two levels of slow practical speeds (2.414 and 3.973 km.h‾¹) in 17 cm depth. Draft force, Slippage percentage, and mean weight diameter were studied in this research.The experiment was conducted by using split plot design under randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. The results were showed the following:The chisel plow surpassed the mold board plow significantly in getting higher mean weight diameter (1.013mm), whereas the mold board plow was superior in getting less draft force (799) kg. The effect of plows and tractor speed were not significant on slippage percentage. The interaction between the chisel plow and the speed 2.414 km.hֿ¹ was superior in getting higher mean weight diameter (1.238 mm) only. | ||
