ABSTRACT:
A bracket assembly for mounting on any size tool bar or similar supporting structure oriented transversely at the rear of a tractor and supporting an agricultural implement such as a spray rig assembly which includes a plant leaf lifter and protector supported in depending, trailing relation to the bracket assembly by a pair of pivotal, parallel links having a ground engaging supporting shoe or skid at the lower end which supports a plant leaf lifter and protector associated with spray nozzles so that liquid discharged from the nozzles will not directly engage the plant stems or foliage. The bracket assembly includes a variation that enables the tool bar to be supported from the draft mechanism of the tractor including a structure accommodating the draft pins on the lower links or arms of a three point hitch mounted on the tractor. The plant leaf lifter and protector includes a semi-rigid shield and support structure enabling the position of the shield to be adjusted and the shape and thus the leaf lifting characteristics of the shield to be varied.
