Abstract

Turmeric is one of the important spice crops, which earns sizable foreign exchange for our country through export of its and products. By reducing the cost of production per hectare will result in increasing the benefit. The digging of turmeric crop at the proper maturity stage is an essential and important farm operation, but it is tedious, time consuming, labour intensive and costly. Also due to non – availability of skilled labour and the more wages demanded by them to digout the crop the higher field losses damage to the crop by manual digging, necessitate the need to develop a suitable mechanical tuber crop harvester for turmeric is developed based on need for the mechanization of the digging operation for turmeric crop. The tuber crop harvester consist of main frame, soil cutting blade, webs/windrowing unit and three point linkage.
