A mounted milling cutter on a walk-behind tractor - will plow where the tractor will not drive up. Seasonal earnings idea

Those who have a walk-behind tractor use it for plowing a vegetable garden by installing cutters or a plow on it instead of wheels:

Plow for rough or first plowing of land that has not been cultivated for a long time. Mostly classic cutters are used. But if the walk-behind tractor is light and the soil is clayey, then it will jump out of the furrow. There is another cutter design called crow's feet. The speed of work on them is lower, but they are also suitable for clay soils (a walk-behind tractor with this cutter does not jump out).

It is clear that when plowing with a plow, the soil is obtained with lumps. And after the cutter - loose, which is convenient for planting crops and their better growth.

To increase the grip, double, elongated cutters are installed:

But again, this is only for heavy implements and for loose soils. It will be more effective to plow the garden with a cutter connected to the power take-off shaft of the walk-behind tractor:

The mounted milling cutter is suitable for heavy walk-behind tractors MTZ Belarus, Agro, Motor SICH. Produced in Belarus. Model: soil milling cutter FR-00.010. Capture width - 440 and 610 mm. Tillage depth: 120 mm. Weight: 40 kg. Working speed: 3 km / h

Soil milling cutters GOLDONI, PF-0.8 are suitable for the same units. An example of working with such a cutter is in a short video:

As you can see, the process is fast enough and not complicated. Easier than using milling cutters instead of wheels. And the speed is not much lower than the milling cutter of a tractor. There is an advantageous difference from a tractor - the walk-behind tractor does not trample the soil so much, and it can work in places where the tractor will not drive up or turn around there.

Cost of mounted milling cutters:

The price is comparable to the cost of the walk-behind tractor itself. Yes, the cost is high, like other attachments for the walk-behind tractor (snow blower and brushcutter). I wrote about them in these articles:

If you purchase such a mounted soil cutter, then it will have a long payback period. Whereas cutters instead of wheels have a cost 2000-3500 thousand / comp. And for beds with an area of ​​1-2 acres, they will be enough. But for plowing a larger area of ​​the garden - it is difficult to work with them, you get tired quickly.

The purchase of such a cutter makes sense to get additional income when plowing a garden for neighbors. Surely there are those who do not have a cultivator and to whom the mini-tractor will not pass in the garden, and if it does, it will be difficult to turn around and he will trample everything there. Many people dig up their weaving of the garden with a shovel, with their hands. Perhaps they will not refuse if you carefully plow a vegetable garden with it. We have the cost of plowing with a mini tractor milling cutter - from 350 rubles / weaving.

There can be up to 10 such people only on your street of a village, cottage or holiday village. Moreover, you do not have to compete with those who plow with a milling cutter on a tractor. They work in large and open areas, and you can do it in indoor vegetable gardens with beds.

You can cover more yards if you move around the village on a trailer for a walk-behind tractor:

Trolley-trailer for transporting the cutter. If desired, the cost of purchasing a mounted cutter can be recouped in one spring season. If you rely not only on word of mouth, but to post announcements around the village or scatter printed leaflets in the mailboxes of fellow villagers.

Only for driving on public roads on such a trailer you will need a tractor driver's license.

If someone uses a mounted milling cutter on their walk-behind tractor, write about your experience.
