Research was conducted on the three dominant agricultural soils of south-east Nigeria to develop some empirical regression relationships for predicting the performances of some selected tractor-hitched tillage implements from the experimental results obtained in the field. Results of the experiments revealed that the optimum speed of plough in clay-loam and loamy – sandy soil was 6km/h with corresponding field efficiencies of 88.11% and 87.55% respectively, while in sandy – clay soil, the plough recorded its optimum speed of 7km/h with field efficiency of 87.78%.The optimum speed of harrow in clay-loam soil was 8km/h with field efficiency of 87.98%. In loamy – sandy soil, its optimum speed was 8km/h with field efficiency of 87.19%; while in...
