Paper Summary

The study looked at how deep tilling and ploughing speed affect the performance of farming tools in India. Soil loosening before planting is crucial, but tools wear out over time, reducing efficiency and costing farmers money. By understanding the best depth and speed for tilling, farmers can save time and fuel, and improve tractor efficiency.
