rice is a main food for iranian people and has an important role in providing food security. regarding the population growth, increase of rice production and reduction of losses have special importance in prevention of rice import. rice losses in the harvest stage are the highest through the whole production period of this crop and hence the reduction of these losses is necessary. provision of ...

Considering an energy harvesting sensor network, the overall probability of event loss is derived. Based on this result, a variety of harvesting resource allocation schemes (sizing the energy storages and the harvesting devices, under a total cost constraint) are provided. Their performances are verified and compared through simulations.

The yield loss during the process of harvesting is a great challenge in rice production. A suitable time and method can help to reduce losses rice, decisions about harvest date have important implications for labor management as well agricultural machinery scheduling. Nonetheless, comprehensive composition timeliness (THL) its changing rules different methods remain poorly understood. objective...

Abstract The aim of this research is to present a simulation model for reducing economic damages of mechanized wheat harvesting in the weather conditions of Khuzestan province and similar areas. The simulated model is composed of three sub-models, for determining of the appropriate working hours, grain losses, and economic sub-model. In order to determine the appropriate working hours, a mathem...

Brasica napus L. is one of the most important crops in the world, but every year during mechanized harvesting with conventional combines large quantities of the seeds fall to the ground and thus result in a decrease in yield. Therefore, designing and manufacturing a head specific for harvesting this crop is a high priority. In this study, the head of a combine for harvesting fine-grained produc...
