Abstract
The main goal of the present research is to develop a rationalized power, and operation cost combined machine suitable for sugar beet planting and harvesting operations, and to be suitable for the Egyptian agricultural conditions. The developing machine components can be summarized in two parts: First component is planting unit: is planted two sugar seeds' rows with suitable depth at top of the middle center of the two row furrows, in the same time formed three cultivable rows. The formed three shares are seated after the two planting rows. Each formed row share is a consisted from a double mouldboard bottoms, at end of it whereas, the drop seeds is covered by the sliding soils path. Second Component is sugar beet pulling unit: is involved three main sugar beet harvester components namely, two appropriate shares for loosing the ridge structure around the roots, pulling out belt mechanism with its proper power transmission system, and a proper disk knife as a topping mechanism.
The machine id performed 60-70 cm riders during planting two rows. Also harvester one sugar beet row through pulling out and topping mechanisms. Three proper ridges in shape of a double mouldboard were constructed one was fixed on the front machine frame and the other two ridges were fixed on the back frame. Also two proper shares form for loosing the ridge structure around the roots.
