Evaluation of Tractor Field Performance Using Visual Basics Programming for Agricultural Farm Lands

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to developed a program in visual basic software for predicting tractor implement performance of tractor implement combination. A conventional tillage system with a mounted mouldboard plough and three bottoms was used to collect data from a Chery tractor (Model RM750) with a four-wheel drive. The soil texture class were determined in laboratory. Soil cone index value was measured using a SpotOn digital compaction meter. The output of the visual basics simulation in this study was obtained by varying the depth of operation and soil cone index for an experimental farm field. From the simulation output the results this study covers of drawbar power, implement draft, pull, tractive force, fuel consumption, slip, power delivery efficiency, dynamic weight and wheel dynamic reactions were drawn by varying depth and soil cone index value.
