ABSTRACT:
An agricultural implement is arranged to be connected to a tractor so that it can be pulled over a field covered with organic material, such as live or dead plants or harvesting residues. The implement includes a main support frame followed by an auxiliary support frame. A flail-blade cylinder is dependently supported from the main frame for comminuting the organic material. Arms are mounted on the main frame rearwardly of the cylinder for loosening the soil. On the auxiliary support frame, a device is mounted for breaking up clods of loosened soil. A hood is positioned over the cylinder with a selectively adjustable rear part for directing the flow of the comminuted organic material thrown rearwardly by the cylinder. Other material directing or conveying members can be used in combination with the hood for facilitating the movement of the comminuted material rearwardly from the cylinder.
