Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hop planting, in particular to a hop bud cutting device. Background Art
[0002] As a perennial plant, hops have a taproot that goes deep into the soil. Several lateral roots are scattered around the taproot, forming a huge root system. The lateral roots share the nutrients of the taproot, reducing the nutrient supply of the taproot to the hops on the surface. Therefore, bud cutting is required during the hop planting period to maintain sufficient nutrient supply to the taproot. Hops are generally planted in rows, with gaps between adjacent rows. The gaps are where the lateral roots are concentrated.
[0003] The traditional hop bud cutting operation requires digging up the soil layer in the gaps between hop plantings to expose the lateral roots before workers cut the buds. This not only consumes a lot of manpower, but also requires workers to peel off the soil adhering to the surface when digging up the soil layer to bring out the lateral roots in order to accurately cut the lateral roots. This will result in low efficiency in hop bud cutting and make it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale hop planting and cutting. Utility Model Content
