Energy performance of wide-width cotton seed sowing aggregate.

This article provides information on determination of energy performance in laboratory-field tests of wide-width sowing machine-tractor aggregate. In this case, experiments to determine the traction resistance of the aggregate in operating process and in idle mode were determined by the towing method. The traction resistance of the MTA (Machine-Tractor Aggregate) and tractor was determined. As a result, daily productivity of Magnum 8940 + Case 1200 aggregate was 41.82 hectares, the main time during the shift was 3.87 hours, and a time of one shift was 8.2 hours. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
