Title
EFFECT OF GROUND SPEED AND HEADER REVOLUTIONS ON THE PICKING EFFICIENCY OF WILD BLUEBERRY HARVESTER
Aitazaz Ahsan Farooque; Qamar Uz Zaman; Dominic Groulx; et al. 2013 Kansas City, Missouri, July 21 - July 24, 2013 2013. doi:10.13031/aim.20131596449
Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Preharvest wild blueberry fruit losses were lower early in the harvest season.
- Observation Un-harvested berries on the plants were lower than ground losses.
- Observation losses through blower were lower than ground losses.
- Association ground speed significantly affected picking efficiency.
- Association header rpm significantly affected picking efficiency.
- Association their interaction significantly affected picking efficiency.
- Intervention effect At 1.2 km h-1 and 26 rpm, fruit losses were significantly lower than other combinations.
- Recommendation The authors conclude an ideal ground speed and header rpm combination can minimize fruit losses.
