AGP chain-type or MGP belt-type?
Begin with the feeding mechanism. AGP machines use chain-mounted cups; MGP machines use a belt fitted with buckets. Ask which setup suits the size and shape of your prepared cloves. Confirm the exact offered configuration instead of assuming that every model uses the same adjustments.
Match rows to the rest of your equipment
A larger row count is useful only if it fits your beds, wheel tracks and later cultivation. Sketch the position of the rows and tractor wheels. Record the bed width, the spacing between rows and the intended distance between planting positions along each row.
Compare tractor requirements
Check the published specification and discuss the tractor make, model, power, hitch arrangement and lift capacity with the sales contact. Do not infer compatibility from horsepower alone.

Build a model shortlist
Use the complete model catalogue to compare row configurations. For a chain-type layout, review the AGP-3R and AGP-4R. For a belt-type layout, review the MGP-2R and MGP-4R. Each page includes its own published specifications, photos and video.
Prepare planting material
Garlic planting uses separated cloves. Send a photograph of representative, prepared cloves beside a ruler. Keep crop preparation separate from machine selection; ask about bulb separation equipment if that is also part of your workflow.
