Nguyen Van An and Le Van Cu made the machine themselves and say it increases farming productivity by replacing manual labor, usually carried out with a hoe.
The mechanism can harvest up to 3 hectares of potatoes a day and even shakes off the dirt before dropping them on the ground.
The machine costs around VND10 million (US$526).
Lam Dong Province has been implementing a project to develop a potato farm in Da Lat City from 2009 to 2015.
This year, the province expects to harvest around 23,400 tons of potatoes.
