Abstract: Plowing remains an important process in agrotechnology, but also one of the most energy -intensive ones. The analysis of plow structures and research aimed at reducing the traction resistance of the arable unit, showed that a solution that could not provide a significant reduction in traction resistance with minimal operating costs has been proposed today. A promising direction for further improvement of the plow of the plow of the plow is the maximum reduction of friction of its five on the wall of the furrow. Purpose: reducing the traction resistance of the plow housing for basic tillage by justifying its structural parameters. A mathematical model has been developed for the theoretical determination of the basic parameters of the device to reduce the traction resistance of the plow body and the dependencies that affect the process of its operation and the specific force of pressure of the roller on the wall of the furrow are established. The graphic dependencies obtained are important for practical use. It is proposed to install on the bracket in the back of the field board of the plow of the plow of the active element of rolling in the form of a barrel -shaped roller, which, rotating in the horizontal plane, provides contact with the furrow with it only in the zone of the maximum radius In the friction of rolling, and reduces the traction resistance of the plow body during plowing. The construction of the bracket and the roller itself contributes to its self -cleaning and elimination of moist soil on its working surface. Based on the known soil and climatic conditions, the depth of plowing, the width of the grip of the plow and the force acting on the field board, you can determine the rational diameter of the roller. This will convert sliding into rolling friction and increase the reliability and reduce the energy consumption of the plowing process.
