Stalk Folding and Breaking Device

摘要

A system and method for preventing stubble damage to agricultural implement tires is disclosed. The system can comprise a plurality of drag chains mounted in advance of tires traversing a field. The drag chains may be disposed by a plurality of hanging support chains to suspend the drag chains. The system may also comprise a plurality of chain assemblies separating the hanging chains and at least one mounting bracket, wherein the chain assembly is mounted to the agricultural implement so as to suspend the support chains and drag chains ahead of the front wheels of the implement.
