Operational monitoring of the physical condition of the soil in the process of its unsealing

Annotation Purpose. Effective soil decompressing in modern crop production technologies. Methods. Analysis of modern methods of monitoring the physical condition of the soil, the method of radio wave profiling of the surface of the field, the method of synthesis of technical means, the theory of automatic control. Results. Model ultrasonic monitoring of the depth of the soil compacted layer, the device of forming a control signal to change the depth of the working body of the soil ripper, the results of the device study for operational determination depth of the compacted soil layer. Conclusions. The method of continuous radio wave profiling of the surface of the field in the movement of the ITA allows to effectively determine the depth of the location of the compacted soil layer in modern technologies of crop production. The device for operational control of the depth of the soil cultivator of the agricultural ITA allows to effectively loosen the soil while reducing fuel consumption by 20% and increasing the productivity of the unit by 10%.
