ABSTRACT:
An agricultural slasher for cutting bushy plants, such as cotton plants, after harvesting, has a tractor-mounted main frame carrying a series of parallel laterally spaced driven cutter shafts inclining from bottom to top in the direction of travel, each carrying, one above the other, a series of rotary cutters each having a number of radiating blades. Guides on the main frame define guideways to guide plants to be slashed, as the main frame is advanced, towards the rotary cutters which co-act, near to the rear of the guideways, with fixed cutters on the main frame. The inclined assemblies of rotary cutters, coacting with the fixed cutters, cut the branches of the bushes into small pieces before the trunks of the bushes are severed near ground level, and the lowermost of the rotary cutter blades penetrate the soil and chop the roots of the bushes.
