We've had a long fall with good weather in Southern Illinois, so you should have all of your crops safely stored away now. If you tire of digging potatoes by hand every fall, you should keep your eyes open for one of these nifty little rigs.
I recognized the purpose of the potato digger before I saw the label on the side, because it is quite similar to the machines used for lifting tree seedlings, and I've seen those a few times.
The tail piece shakes the soil of the spuds before they drop off, same as a seedling lifter.
If you're going to produce a prodigious pile of potatoes, you should add one of these to your tool list for the machine shed.
