Reduction of Grain Loss During Harvesting Due to the Rational Distribution of Vehicles

Abstract

The paper deals with the mathematical model of the rational distribution of vehicles, which allows attaching them to a group of combine harvesters during harvesting, depending on the carrying capacity of vehicles, the productivity of combine harvesters and the capacity of grain storage facilities. In addition, it presents a formula which allows determining the required number of vehicles that will deliver grain from a group of combine harvesters. Further the article presents calculations of routes of vehicles movement and determination of the required number of vehicles de-pending on the carrying capacity of one of the operating agricultural organizations.
