Cranberry Plow

Legacy Equipment - Cranberry Plow

THE UNDERGROUND WATER MANAGEMENT MACHINE

Designed in 2012 with the input of Wisconsin cranberry growers, the Legacy Equipment Cranberry Plow was designed to install both drainage tile and irrigation pipe in new and existing cranberry beds. 

 

 

The  Legacy Equipment Cranberry Plow uses a 3 point hitch attachment and a parallel linkage vertical lift system.   The 20" disc blade is located directly above the cutting edge and is designed to cut the existing cranberry roots cleanly and efficiently with minimal disturbance to the cranberry bed.  The 24 degree cutting edge at the front lifts the soil and allows the installation slide to move through the soil wile keeping excellent grade. 

The Cranberry Plow has a 66" long slide with an attached laser/GPS mount for the accurate placement of drainage and irrigation pipe.  The entry to the slide has two vertical and one horizontal rollers to prevent any cuts or abrasions on the irrigation pipe.  The control wheel is adjustable from 2" to 4" drainage or irrigation pipe.  There are two depth control wheels/tires at the rear of the slide that are adjustable from 6" to 18" depth.  There are two trench closing wheels/tires at the rear of the slide that cause minimal disturbance to existing cranberry beds.
