performance optimization of chisel tine was proposed by using a chisel plow with adjustable rake angle. effective treatments consisted of soil moisture at 0.5, 0.7 and 0.9 of plastic limit (pl), three rake angle of 30, 40 and 50 degree and speeds of to 3, 5 and 7 km h-1. the measured parameters included draft, soil disturbance area, soil upheaving area, clod mean weight diameter (mwd), specific...

In cold weather cities, snowstorms can have a significant disruptive effect on both mobility and safety, and consequently the faster that streets can be cleared the better. Yet in most cities, plans for snowplowing are developed using simple allocation schemes that while easy to implement can also be quite inefficient. In this paper we consider the problem of optimizing the routes of a fleet of...

The purpose of the study was to substantiate technology and parameters “paraplau” type soil dredger for a two-tier plow. basic principles methods classical mechanics, mathematical analysis statistics were used in this study. Sub-tillage loosening most compacted layers fields from under cotton must be carried out strip way along line middle irrigation furrows between rows. It is established that...

the purpose of this research was to study and predict fuel consumption rate of tractor due to different aspect ratios of chisel plow blade and to determine a general relationship equation between aspect ratio ( ) and fuel consumption rate.  an itm-399 (81 kw) tractor and a mounted-type chisel plow with 9 shanks were used. the 5 and 10 cm width chisel blades were used. the experiments were condu...

Movement and persistence of 1,2-dibrotno-3-chloropropane (DBCP) in a Coastal Plain soil containing a sandy plow-pan were enhanced in each of 2 years by subsoiling, increased depth of application, and increased rate of application. DBCP was extracted from the soil with hexane and analyzed by gas chromatography. Subsoiling at a 35-cm depth gave the greatest increase in lateral movement and downwa...

Aim: To evaluate the performance of planters under different tillage practices on growth, yield, energy use efficiency, and economics rabi maize.
 Study Design: Split-plot.
 Place Duration Study: Maize Research Centre, ARI, Rajendranagar between November 2021 April 2022.
 Methodology: A field experiment was conducted at Rajendranagar, Hyderabad, Ranga Reddy (District) during 2021...

The possible impact of Rotylenchulus reniformis below plow depth was evaluated by measuring the vertical distribution of R. reniformis and soil texture in 20 symptomatic fields on 17 farms across six states. The mean nematode population density per field, 0 to 122 cm deep, ranged from 0.4 to 63 nematodes/g soil, and in 15 fields more than half of the R. reniformis present were below 30.5 cm, wh...

This study was designed to calibrate and evaluate the subsurface drain flow component of the Root Zone Water Quality Model (RZWQM; Version 2.5) for four tillage-systems: chisel plow (CP), moldboard plow (MB), no-tillage (NT), and ridge-tillage (RT). Measured subsurface drain flow data for 1990 was used for model calibration. Main parameters calibrated were lateral saturated hydraulic conductivi...

OBJECTIVES This in vitro study evaluated the microtensile bond strength (MTBS) of a methacrylate-based compared to a silorane-based resin composite in Class I cavity using different placement techniques. MATERIALS AND METHODS Class I cavities with dimension of (4 mm long, 4 mm wide, 3 mm deep) were prepared in extracted sound human molars. The teeth were randomly divided into six groups. The ...

This research focused on rill formation, rill density, and associated flow velocity distribution in rills at the field level and with different tillage treatments in the inland Pacific Northwest. The study was conducted by applying flow at three different rates under winter conditions, which provides the greatest potential for rill formation. The following tillage treatments were tested: chisel...
