A machine for picking up rocks from soils having a structure suitable for being moved over the surface of the soil. The machine has a pair of side wheels, being towed by a tractor vehicle from which it receives movement through its power take-off. The machine has rock extraction and uprooting elements incorporated on the advancing edge of the machine, made in the form of teeth, associated with a tooth bar region of the structure of the machine, having certain play, a rotating movable feed reel with teeth, a conveyor belt for lifting said rocks up through an inclined plane from a leading edge to a trailing edge located at a greater height; a rock collection and accumulation hopper arranged on the trailing edge.

A stalk puller to be used with or without a mower/shredder utilizes a pair of independently mounted discs converging along their lower edge to grasp and pull stalks from the ground as the stalk puller is moved down the row by a prime mover. At least one of the discs is urged against the other by a spring such that the associated disc may allow rocks and debris to pass between the discs without damage. The spring mounting reduces adjustments due to normal wear as well as damage from debris.

An improved row cleaning/closing wheel having improved debris removing and/or furrow closing performance with complimentary left and right cleaning/closing wheel pairs having a sloped body portion at an angle relative to a hub base for improved cleaning and/or closing operation during row planting. The sloped body portion and the hub base may form a continuous curve from the center of the hub base to a set of teeth on the outer edge of the sloped body portion. The improved row cleaning wheel for use with a floating row cleaner and/or closing arm assemblies attached to a row planter during planting operation.

Hydraulic solutions on a to a tractor or equivalent connected work machine, where the work machine shows several hydraulic driven work units and hydraulic motors, and where the hydraulic motors are so mounted and connected that the pressure drop over the hydraulic motor of the most congested work unit also in static conditions can increase markedly over the system pressure of the hydraulic power source that drives the work machine and where the rotors of the hydraulic driven working units can be reversed to free a possible blockage.

A debris grapple bucket attachment for securement with the loader of a compact tractor, generally used in conjunction with the front end loader of a tractor, the attachment comprising a grapple incorporating a grapple bucket for use in combination with a front rake like member, with the grapple bucket having sidewalls, a formed back wall, all structurally integrated together, with the rake like member being secured with an electrically operated industrial linear actuator, to provide for pivoting of the rake like member from an open to a closed position as when urging debris onto its grapple bucket, and to retain the same, for removal.
