Mechanized Harvesting of Leafy Parsley Crops in the Region of South Banat
So far, many types, styles and sizes of mowing equipment has been developed and introduced in the agricultural practice. Therefore, leaf crops harvesting seems to be easier to mechanize with respect to other cultivars. ...
Theoretical and Experimental Research of Strength of Soldered Joints (Metal of Share – Metal Ceramics)
This article presents theoretical estimate of soldered strain and the obtained equivalent stresses distributions along the share length. It is suggested to estimate the soldered joints strength taking into consideration ...
Results of Preliminary Laboratory Studies After Pre-Sowing Electric Treatment of Pea Seeds
In many countries, the possibilities for stimulation of the sowing qualities and yield of cultivars after pre-sowing electric treatment of their seeds have already been identified.
At the University of Ruse, Bulgaria, ...
Respiratory Behaviour of Mature Light Green Guava (Psidium Guajava L.) under Closed System
Respiratory behavior is an important aspect in designing and operating systems such as controlled and modified atmosphere storage that will extend the shelf life of the perishable produce. The respiration rate and respiratory ...
Development of Air Assisted Sprayer for Greenhouse Floriculture Crops
Floriculture is one of the major sectors in Indian agriculture. Main threats to floriculture production are insects, pests and diseases. Therefore, a motor operated air assisted sprayer was developed for greenhouse ...
Development and Comparative Study of Cast Iron Rasp Bar and Nylon Rasp Bar Threshing Cylinders for Paddy Threshing
Two types of threshing cylinders, namely cast iron rasp bar threshing cylinder and nylon rasp bar threshing cylinder, were developed and fitted with portable paddy thresher. Each threshing cylinder was tested for its ...
Effect of Feed Rate, Concave Clearance and Peripheral Speed on the Performance Evaluation of Pre Thresher for Onion Umbels (Allium cepa var. aggregatum L.)
Freshly harvested, sun dried onion umbels consists of florets attached to the hard umbel heads. Conventional threshing method involves tractor treading, rubbing umbels using rubber slippers on hard surface and beating with ...
Application of Cooling in Postharvest Handling of Grain
The present paper addresses the issue of postharvest handling of grain with focus on storage, when cooling is used in order to maintain the quality of the processed product and the required storage period. The paper presents ...
Mathematical Modeling of Physical Properties of Indian Mangoes Using Image Processing Method for Machine Vision Systems
Mathematical modeling study was carried out with the measured physical properties of two varieties of Indian mangoes as a function of projected area (Pip) calculated using image processing technique. Three models viz. ...
Development of Pedal Operated Syzygium Cumini Tree Shaker with Catching Unit
The objective of this research work was to develop a pedal operated tree shaker for jamun (Syzygium cumini) fruit harvesting. The prototype machine was constructed and tested on jamun fruit. The tree shaker was powered by ...
