what is digger in agriculture, how they work?

Ans.

A tractor digger is a highly useful farm machinery or implements that helps farmers with the excavation or harvesting of specific crops, such as potatoes, carrots, or other root crops. As all these vegetables have deep roots, a tractor digger helps farmers to uproot these vegetables easily.

The digger implement attaches to the tractor's 3-point hitch to operate. It's available in different designs and styles. With various uses of diggers in agriculture, farmers have a chance to increase harvesting efficiency and minimize wastage.

Tractor diggers are an easy way to save time and labor while uprooting the crops from the farming land. While it helps in harvesting, it promotes soil conservation by avoiding the need for extensive manual digging, which can disturb the soil structure.
