Abstract: A vine cutter for cutting entangled vines of potato plants in front of a potato harvester so that the vines do not become entangled and accumulated upon a front portion of the potato harvester. The inventive device includes a frame having a pair of upper members and a pair of opposing lower members, a first disc and a second disc journaled to the frame, a third disc journaled to the frame below the first disc and second disc, a ground engaging rim attached coaxially to the third disc, and a motor mechanically connected to the first, second and third discs. The first disc, the second disc and the third disc are vertically orientated, and a portion of the discs overlap and are juxtaposed to one another. A portion of the third disc is between the first disc and the second disc for severing the vines. The discs preferably include a plurality of notches projecting into their respective outer perimeters. The discs may have different sizes with respect to one another.
