A plough attachment, which is a miniature plough bottom that cuts a narrow, shallow furrow ahead of the shin and moves trash and roots toward the main furrow so that they are completely covered by the mouldboard, is called as

An 8 x 20 cm seed drill has a 0.60 m diameter ground wheel. On a hard-surface calibration stand, the drill delivers 814 g of seeds in 30 wheel revolutions.
When operated in a field having soft soil, the wheel's effective rolling circumference reduces by 4%. Neglecting other losses, the actual-field seed application rate (in kg/ha) is ________. (Rounded off to two decimal places)
(Take \(\pi = 3.14\))

A tractor-mounted boom sprayer carries a horizontal row of 12 identical flat-fan nozzles (spray angle \(110^{\circ}\)). To achieve uniform coverage, the required lateral overlap between adjacent nozzle footprints at the target plane is 30% of a single nozzle footprint. Boom height is 0.60 m above the target plane.
The tractor is set to travel at a theoretical forward speed of 8 km/h. Wheel slip is 8% and the field efficiency is 75%. All other losses are neglected.
The total time (in minutes) required to spray a 25 ha field is ________. (Rounded off to the nearest integer)
