Growing various kinds of crops is a long time business and very laborious. And of course, without using all kinds of modern technology, it is unlikely that a farmer or an agricultural holding can get a good harvest. A variety of equipment can be used in the cultivation of grain, root crops, vegetables, flowers, etc. The production of such equipment for agriculture is mainly carried out by enterprises in the machine-building industry.
Classification
Part of the fund of farms and agricultural holdings can be:
electrical equipment;
cleaning equipment;
a tractor;
sowing equipment;
sprayers;
tillage equipment;
fodder machines.
The equipment produced by modern industry for agriculture is capable of satisfying literally all the needs of an agricultural holding or farm. Each such machine is designed to perform specific tasks and is distinguished by its set of characteristics.
Electrical equipment in households
The main purpose of the devices and units of this group is, of course, providing farms with electricity. The following types of equipment of this type can be used on farms:
electrical engineering;
ball control;
control and measuring;
automation tools;
fixtures, etc.
Without such devices and units on the farm, it will be impossible to equip ventilation, provide lighting, the operation of milking machines. Cream and butter cannot be made without separators; milk cannot be stored without refrigerators.
Sowing machines and equipment for agriculture
The technique of this variety is mainly used only in agricultural complexes specializing in growing plants. But sometimes such equipment is also purchased by livestock farms. Farms of this specialization often, among other things, also have sown areas on which grain and root crops are used, which are used as feed for livestock.
Such equipment belongs to this group, for example, as:
seeders;
storage tanks;
bunkers.
Seeders, as can already be judged by their name, are intended for planting cereals. In storage tanks and bunkers in farms contains seed.
Equipment for agriculture: harvesting equipment
To the equipment of this class are, of course, primarily combines. This technique can be used for harvesting wheat, rye, corn, etc. Almost any modern combine harvester can perform three functions at once: reapers, threshers and winders.
Also, for example, equipment such as:
The technique of the latter type is most often used in the harvesting of hay for farm animals. Rowing headers, like combines, are used on farms to harvest different types of grain.
Tractors
Such equipment for agriculture is produced by industry simply in huge quantities. It is such a technique on farms and in agricultural holdings that is the most popular. Tractors are used in agriculture very widely. Farm funds can include both tracked and wheeled vehicles of this type. At the same time, the second type of tractor is the most demanded in farms. Farm tracked models are mainly used only in problem areas.
Various kinds of agricultural work are being carried out using such equipment using additional attachments. For agriculture, enterprises can, for example, produce such varieties of similar tools as:
seeders;
harrows;
mowers;
plows, etc.
Tractors used in agriculture can be equipped with engines of different power. Cabins of modern cars of this variety are usually distinguished by a high degree of comfort and are equipped with heaters and air conditioners.
Sprayers
This type of equipment for agriculture can be made in the form of mounted tools or trailers. Also, self-propelled sprayers are often used on farms and agricultural holdings.
The tank volume of such equipment can vary between 200-2000 liters. Sprayers are used in agriculture to treat fields with herbicides and insecticides. That is, this technique is mainly used to control weed and pest plantings. Also, this type of equipment can be used for spraying liquid fertilizers. Installations of this variety usually cling to wheeled tractors.
Feed harvesting machines
This class of agricultural equipment includes, for example:
tedders;
balers;
coil wrappers;
windrowers;
bale trailers.
Mowers can be assigned to this category of equipment. Very often, farms, among other things, use forage harvesters. This may be a technique, for example, designed for harvesting beets, potatoes, etc.
Equipment of this variety can be used for mowing grass, flattening and drying it, forming rolls, pressing rolls and packing them in a special film. On trailers, feed prepared in this way is transported to storage sites.
Tillage machinery
Such equipment and tools for agriculture are also available in a very large assortment. The use of modern technology is necessary, of course, not only when planting or harvesting various kinds of crops, but also when growing them. The class of tillage equipment can be attributed, for example:
harrows;
plows;
screw rollers, etc.
Such a technique is used for cultivating the land in order to improve its qualities. With the help of plows, the soil is made loose and suitable for growing crops. On uncultivated land, of course, nothing will grow. Harrows are used to level the fields and destroy the crust in order to prevent drying out of the soil.
Screw rollers in agriculture are used for rolling land in the fields. That is, to compact the topsoil. This procedure allows you to reduce the loss of planting material and get more friendly shoots.
