A unit (UO) for the processing ground (T), comprises at least a first group (G1, D3) for supporting rotating cutting disk means (D) adapted to realize grooves (S) in said ground (T); at least a second group (G2) for supporting plowshare means (V, E) adapted to realize, in correspondence of said grooves (S), cuts (Z) below the surface of said ground (T); and mechanical coupling means (M2) for dynamically connecting said second group (G2) to said first group (G1, D3).

A fully automated irrigation system to irrigate regular and irregular shapes of land. The system includes a water delivery pipe assembly configured to travel linearly while irrigating adjacent to a stationary row of water main spaced access valves. The system includes an automated connector configured to supply water from the access valves to the water delivery pipe assembly. The connector includes a swing arm, a compensator, a valve coupler, a lift and a swinger. The swing arm facilitates positioning a coupler body above a next-up access valve and facilitates positioning the delivery pipe assembly. The compensator compensates for distance change between a coupled-to access valve and the delivery pipe assembly when the assembly travels. A coupler body resides at an outer end of the swing arm. The lift raises and lowers the swing arm to couple and uncouple respectively the coupler body along the row of access valves. The lift also holds the swing arm above the ground while the swinger swings the swing arm proximate to the next-up access valve for subsequent coupling the coupler body thereto.

A hose reel prime mover includes: a carriage; a hose spool connected to the carriage and configured to rotate relative to the carriage; a drive axle rotatably connected to the carriage; a steering axle pivotably connected to the carriage; and an electric drive system comprising a battery pack and a first motor electrically z,999 .

A hydroelectrically-charged agricultural irrigation prime mover includes: a carriage; a plurality of wheels coupled to the carriage; a fluid supply pipe configured to receive a pressurized fluid; an electric drive system; and a hydroelectric charging system. The electric drive system includes: a battery pack; and a motor electrically connected to the battery pack and configured to rotate at least some of the wheels. The hydroelectric charging system includes: a turbine fluidly connected to the fluid supply pipe to receive at least some of the pressurized fluid; and a hydroelectric generator connected to the turbine and configured to charge the battery pack.

Described is an irrigation system for large greenhouses including rails, an irrigation carriage including at least one irrigation bar equipped with suitable nozzles, a primary hose connected or connectable to the irrigation carriage and a secondary hose connected or connectable to the irrigation carriage.

The irrigation system also includes a recirculation wheel configured to keep the primary hose and secondary hose taut during a sliding of the irrigation carriage and defining a first sliding channel and a second sliding channel configured, respectively, to receive at least partly the primary hose and the secondary hose so as to maintain sliding axes of the primary hose and secondary hose parallel to each other and lying on a same sliding plane.

An agricultural irrigation system and method for irrigating a field includes a water supply pipe supported by a wheeled support or tower. The irrigation system can move in an oscillating fashion across the field while dispersing water. The irrigation system is advanced in a forward direction a first distance, reversed in a backward direction a second distance that is less than the first distance, then readvanced in a forward direction. The system can include a manifold connected to the water supply pipe. The manifold includes drop lines to supply water to a crop below the manifolds. Existing irrigation systems can be retrofitted with the manifold and drop lines.
