Peanut planting industry starts to realize mechanization planting, mechanization from peanuts planting to deep processing has been basically realized. Here we would make a brief introduction of the types of peanut harvesting machinery:
1. Peanut digger
Peanut digger has a similar structure with general plough, often supporting with small four-wheel tractor or walking tractor. Peanut digger has simple structure, low cost and good performance with ground fruit abscission rate of less than 4%, loss rate less than 3% and broken rate less than 1%. It is the machine with stable performance and good economic benefit. But it can only be used for peanut digging operations. The following soil shaking, collecting and picking fruit also need to be accomplished by artificial. Thus, the work efficiency of peanut digger is lower and it can't meet the demand of multi-link mechanical work in peanut harvesting.
