Description
Summary:A method of filling the combine hopper when it approaches the field edge and providing a to-and-fro method of a combine’s movement in stints is justified. Formulas are given for calculating the operating width of the header and the working speed of movement, depending on the yield, length of the furrow and hopper capacity. The results of a comparative assessment of the traditional and the new methods of harvesting winter wheat with unloading of grain from the combine hopper at the edge of the field are presented.
