Pre extension Demonstration and Evaluation of Animal Drawn Potato Digger in Selected AGP II Districts of Harari Region

Pre extension Demonstration of the potato Digger was conducted at Dire Tayara of Harari Regional State. The objectives of the study were to demonstrate improved potato digger technology and to create awareness among the farmers of potato digger in the study area. The farmers were organized into two FRG groups having 30 members. The evaluation result showed that the digger has a working speed of 1.57km hr., a working width of 35cm, a working depth of 15cm, and an effective time of 0.39hr. Farmers feedback showed that the potato digger has good working speed, good tuber lifting, low tuber damage, good working width, and high time saving. Therefore, better if the technology is further promoted to the study area and other similar agroecology.
