摘要
The insufficient accumulated temperature of the plow layer during spring tillage in Northeast China severely restricts soybean root growth and whole-plant development.High regional soil viscosity further complicates tilling-sowing.In order to seek a solution to these problems,field comparative tests were conducted to investigate the effects of shallow-loosening(SL)and reshaping ridge(RR)on soil temperature and soybean root growth.Compared with conventional tillage(CT),SL and RR significantly increased the soil temperatures within 0-25 cm(p<0.05)and 0-15 cm(p<0.05),respectively.In particular,higher soil temperature within 15-25 cm was established after SL than after RR(p<0.05).Additionally,SL promoted substantially more vigorous soybean development(seedling height)than RR(p<0.05),which in turn led to a significant outperformance over CT(p<0.05).Further,bionics,reverse engineering,and curve fitting were combined to design a hare claw toe bionic shallow-loosening shovel and a pangolin scale bionic ridging shovel with anti-drag functions.Field verification tests confirmed that these two bionic tillage devices outperformed the conventional tillage device in reducing tractive drag by 13%-19%.Based on the results of these tests,a 2BGD-6(110)bionic wide-ridge soybean tilling-sowing machine was designed,which was capable of shallow-loosening,reshaping ridge and sowing.The new machine significantly reduced the tractive drag,efficiently loosened the soil,increased soil temperature,and accelerated soybean root growth.This study can provide a theoretical and practical reference for soybean production in Northeast China.
