THE SEMI- AUTOMATIC TRANSPLANTER OF SUGAR BEET

Evaluating a semi-automatic sugar-beet steckling transplanter performance

determination of energetic and ergonomic parameters of a semi-automatic sugar-beet steckling transplanter

manual planting of sugar-beet stecklings is a very laborious and time-consuming opera-tion. to overcome the problems, and decrease the cost of operation to a reasonable level, a semi-automatic steckling transplanter was designed. the suitability of the steckling trans-planter with regard to the agrotechnical requirements of sugar-beet stecklings was stud-ied and the main field performance param...

Improvement of the Sugar Beet

SUGARCANE and sugar beet are the important sources of sugar. This foodstuff, wldcli today is one of the purest and cheapest in our dietary, two centuries ago was a luxury available only to the rich. The story of the rise of sugar production to meet an ever-increasing demand is a romance of agriculture and chemistry. The accomplishments of the plant breeder and the chemical engineer in making th...

Development of a New Model to Estimate the Technical Quality of Sugar Beet in the Semi – Arid Climate

Determination of the amount of sugar in sugar beet is usually accomplished by polarimetric method in sugar industry. This method is not accurate due to impurities such as sodium, potassium and amino-nitrogen that are present and might cause some errors in the evaluation of the technical quality of sugar beet. In this research, 7309 samples of sugar beet from two semi- arid county, Isfahan and C...

increasing the speed of a semi-automatic onion transplanter with the use of simultaneous planting of multiple seedlings

a semi-automatic 9-row transplanter for bare root seedlings has recently been developed at the isfahan center for agricultural research that plants 80 seedlings/m2 using 9 operators at a capacity of 0.3 ha/d (8 h). separating a single seedling from a bunch and dropping it into a distributer cell by hand takes 1 s on average. at a density of 700-800 thousand/ha, the travel speed should not excee...
