Crop-production tool
An earth working tool (20), in particular a cultivator bar for agriculture, has a mounting segment (21) and a working part (22) directly or indirectly adjoining it. A wear-optimized design for the earth working tool (20) is achieved according to the present invention by the fact the mounting segment (21) comprises two support surfaces (21.6, 21.8), spaced apart from one another, that are part of a hook-in connection.

IMPROVED HEAD FOR AN AGRICULTURAL TOOL
The present invention relates to a head for attaching an agricultural tool to a support beam configured to be towed along a longitudinal axis, the support beam extending substantially transversely to the longitudinal axis, said head including a mounting bracket assembly configured to mount to the support beam at a location along a length of the support beam, and enable attachment of the agricultural tool such that the agricultural tool, when attached, suspends from the clamped mounting bracket assembly, the mounting bracket assembly being mountable to the support beam such that a tool attachment portion of the mounting bracket assembly is forwardly disposed, enabling the agricultural tool to be attached at a fore or central position along the longitudinal axis relative to the transverse support beam, or rearwardly disposed, enabling the agricultural tool to be attached at the central or an aft position along the longitudinal axis relative to the transverse support beam.

Dual-position quick-connect mount and adjustably tensioned stalk stomper
Apparatus and associated methods relate to a two-position quick-connect mounting system for mounting a farm implement to a toolbar in an operating configuration, the mounting assembly including a toolbar bracket and an implement bar, the implement bar being mounted to the toolbar bracket by: i) raising the implement bar into a downward facing cavity of the toolbar bracket; and ii) longitudinally translating the implement bar such that lateral projections on either side of the implement bar are received into operating slots in the toolbar bracket, and a spring-biased locking member automatically engages a securing member. In an illustrative embodiment, the implement bar may be mounted to the toolbar bracket in a stowage configuration by sliding the projections into stowage slots separate from the operating slots. In some embodiments, the implement may advantageously be mounted in one of two mounting configurations, without requiring tools.

Tool mounting assembly for agricultural implements
A tool mounting assembly comprising a shank holder having an elongated passage and an elongated tool shank for an earth working or agricultural tool which is received within the passage and which includes a series of longitudinally spaced teeth. A rotatable adjuster is mounted on the shank holder and can cooperate with the teeth for moving the shank longitudinally of the passage to vary the operating depth of the tool. The shank can also cooperate with the adjuster to lock the adjuster against rotation which prevents longitudinal movement of the shank. A retaining member can be located in the passage for cooperation with the shank to hold the shank in this position. The adjuster may also be rotated to a position out of engagement with the shank teeth which allows for longitudinal sliding movement of the shank through the passage.
Walking beam closing disk assembly
An agricultural implement has a closing disk assembly for closing furrows along a section of ground. The closing disk assembly has a pair of closing disks attached to opposite sides and opposite ends of a walking beam. The closing disks are offset from a reference plane of the closing disk assembly. The walking beam is rotatably coupled to the closing disk assembly through a rocker assembly, a support arm, and a mounting assembly. The walking beam may rotate relative to the rocker assembly to account for variations in the angle of the ground relative to the disks.
