Pukas V. Substantiation of the hardware parameters of sugar beet harvesting technological process

The parameters of technical support of the technological process of sugar beet harvesting are substantiated. It was realized due to the established patterns of change in the cumulative cost of funds, which depended on the time of the beginning of harvesting, the volume of the production area of the crop and the parameters of technical support, and took into account the combined impact of agrometeorological and biological-subject components. The modeling techniques have been developed and a statistical simulation model has been improved in which the technological process of harvesting is regarded as an adaptive process. In particular, the timing of its implementation is consistent with the patterns of achievement of sugar beet and stochastic influence of agrometeorological conditions on the timeliness of harvesting and functional performance indicators. Production observations and computer experiments were performed, and their results were summarized. On this basis, scientifically sound recommendations were developed to reconcile the start time of harvesting and production area of sugar beet with the parameters of technical support of the corresponding technological process. This improves its efficiency by minimizing the specific cumulative cost of funds.
