ABSTRACT:
A planter attachment is installed on an agricultural combine between the throat portion and cutter head thereof. The planter attachment includes a transversely extended forward tool bar carried on a mounting frame adapted for connection to the cutter head attachment structure on a combine throat. An auxiliary cutter head attachment frame is also connected to the tool bar and positioned forwardly of the mounting frame for receiving and supporting a cutter head thereon. Individual planter units are mounted on at least one rearward tool bar which is supported relative to the forward tool bar by a parallelogram linkage to maintain the horizontal disposition of the planter units in response to pivotal movements of the combine throat. A pivotal robot structure on the mounting frame senses the ground position for adjusting the combine throat to maintain a uniform planting depth. The pivotal support for the auxiliary cutter head attachment frame enables independent adjustment of the cutting height.
