Prediction method of the variants of annual field work complexes and its implementation

Abstract

The prediction method of the variants of annual field work complexes provides justification for machine and tractor fleet structure. It gives a graphical view of the load of power machines, evaluation and selection of mechanization equipment for a particular job or complex of works, taking into account the condition that the cost of equipment should be covered by a decreased number of employed operators and harvest losses. The authors propose an algorithm for the implementation of this method, which has led to the creation of a program Agro. A simulation is carried out using the example of a model agricultural organization. The authors confirm the inverse relationship between increasing the power capacity of tractors and the need for machinery.
