Abstract: The increase in the area of orchards of intensive fruit crops in the Russian Federation is one of the priority tasks of horticulture. This requires a huge amount of quality planting material. Digging remains one of the laborious and responsible operations in the production of seedlings of fruit crops. Grubbers and diggers of various producers are used for continuous digging of seedlings. After this, the dug-in seedlings are manually removed from the soil and row and only after that the next run of the unit is possible. The authors proposed a means of mechanization, selective digging of individual varieties or rows of plants, with a winch traction using a cable. The paper provides a comparative analysis of mechanization means for selective digging of seedlings and presents a diagram and results of field tests of two types of devices to perform this operation.
