Tillage is major operation for seedbed preparation and defined as the physical, chemical and biological manipulation of soil to obtain an optimized plant growth. Tillage requires about 60 % of time and energy during the total crop production. A study was taken to design and develop a power less self-propelling vertical axis rotary spin groomer. The purpose of the implement development was to cover more filed in a single pass for reducing the operational time, collect the uprooted residues and to leave it in one end of the ground. Spin groomer designed by using a “solid work 2018 software” and developed in a workshop. Major component of the developed implement is Mainframe, 3-point hitch, circular wheel, pegs and rake. A frame is for holding the different component of the implement. The pegs tightened on circular wheel with the help of suitable nut and bolts. Since the implement converts the forward motion of tractor into rotary motion, hence an axle provided at the rear end of the implement, which holds the bearing assembly and circular wheel. The implement designed to match the any kind of tractor having a power range of 35-horse power or more.
