Cansa planter performance of its work and its effect on some mechanical and agricultural characteristics

Abstract

A field experiment was conducted in one of the fields of the Technical Institute in Shatrha 2022 to study the Cansa planter performance of its work and its effect on some mechanical and agricultural characteristics, on some performance indicators of an emergence percentage, distance between seeds, fuel consumption and slippage percentage. Three levels of a tractor practical speed (2.1, 3.2, and 4.5 km/h), and two levels of a depth of cultivation (3 and 5cm) with three Replication according to the Completely Randomized Design was applied. The results showed that the tractor velocity 2.10 km / hr recording the highest average emergence percentage of 92.05% and the lowest average distance between the seeds amounted to 14.5 cm and the lowest slippage percentage to 12.70%, while the tractor velocity 4.50 km / hr recording the lowest fuel consumption amounted to 0.50 liters / acres and the depth was 3 cm recorded. The highest average eruption rate was 94.20%, the lowest slippage percentage was 15.23%, and the lowest fuel consumption was 0.76 liters / dunum. The depth of 5 cm achieved the lowest distance between the seeds, which amounted to 14.90 cm.
