The implement is for banking up soil while planting tubers or seedlings, and has a stabilised three point linkage mounting. A cutter body is driven from the tractor power take-off shaft via a gearbox and turns about an axis transversely inclined relative to the direction of travel and at an angle to the horizontal. - The cutter body has the blades mounted on a common shaft and these are angled towards the middle of the cutter body. the casing end of the cutter body forms a truncated cone whose generated end facing the ground runs parallel to the ground.
