Digital technology for the disposal of the non-cereal portion of the crop as fertilizer

Abstract

The possibility of using digital technology in the utilization of the non-cereal part of the crop as fertilizer is being considered. The algorithm of the analytical unit of the machine for utilization of the non-cereal part of the crop (AdU NCHU) as a fertilizer is presented, on the basis of which a software module was developed. This machine allows one to perform a set of operations in one pass, converting plant residues lying in the swath into organic fertilizer. The performance of the analytical unit and software in the field was assessed. Based on the obtained data, models of straw rolls were built, which were compared and the total deviation in the indicators did not exceed 3.8%. The range of pressure values varied from 0.18 to 0.26 MPa. Field tests of the software module of the analytical unit AdU NChU showed reliable and adequate operation.
