Relationship of the Height Rice is Cut to Harvesting Test Parameters

Abstract

Data were collected from four long-grain rice varieties to develop a relationship between the height at which rice is when combined and the amount of material other than grain (MOG) above the cut. A quadratic equation described the relationship between the MOG ratio (MOG above the cut divided by the total MOG) and the height ratio (height of cut divided by the plant height) with an R2 value of 99.6% and a mean square error of 0.0004.
