Lightweight power tillers have been introduced recently in the country. Most
models of the light weight power tiller being manufactured in India have been
provided with a front or rear mounted powered rotary unit for forward movement as
well as for tillage operation. There is scope for these power tillers to be used as
seedbed preparation and inter culture operation in wide spaced row crops like cotton
and sugarcane. In order to assess the performance of lightweight power tiller, one
such model was evaluated at Central Mechanical Engineering Research Institute,
Durgapur under various soil conditions. The model was extensively used for
seedbed preparation, inter culture operation etc. This paper presents the results of
the study. The field capacity found to be 0.1 ha/day (10 hrs.). The fuel consumption
was 1 lit/hr.
Key words: Tiller, tillage, Power, lightweight, rotary tiller
