The object of this study was evaluation of a walking tractor drawn peanut harvester at different conditions of soil moisture content and forward speed and comparing it with manual harvesting. The evaluation factors for peanut harvester were two levels of soil moisture content and three levels of forward speed. The results revealed that the effect of soil moisture content was only significant on...

seed loss at harvesting time is one of the factors reducing seed yield in at farms. this study was carried out within a research farm in karaj to evaluate and select a proper pinto bean line for mechanized harvesting at two moisture contents during harvesting and their effect on seed yield and yield loss among three lines of pinto bean. the experiment was split-plot based on randomized complete...

multistage and semi-mechanized harvesting of rice in khouzestan province, iran, causes much loss. depending on available facilities and conditions, either spike-tooth or rasp-bar cylinders are employed with either direct or indirect combine harvesting methods. the present research studied the effect of these different harvesting methods on the amount of losses in two rice varieties in 2001-2002...

mechanical damage due to harvesting, handling, and other processes is an important factor that affects the seeds quality. seed damage results in lower grain value and more storability problem and reduces seed germination and seedling vigor and subsequent yield of crops. tests were conducted to determine the percentage of physical damage (ppd) and percentage of loss in germination (plg) of wheat...

manual citrus harvesting is commonly performing hard, expensive and time consuming. in this study, a factorial experiment with a completely randomized design in three replications was performed to find out the effect of frequency (three levels of 5, 7.5 and 10 hz), vibration time (three levels of 10, 15 and 20 seconds) on harvesting capacity and losses of thomson cultivar of orange. the results...
