The yield measurement system aims to register in real time the amount of cane collected in each part of the field during harvesting, generating a georeferenced variability map which can later be used to make better decisions regarding land treatment and input application.
The flow of cane harvested is weighed in motion by a platform located at the end of the cane lift conveyor, and this information is transmitted via a CAN BUS to the Vcom computer, where it is displayed on screen and also stored in the datalogging memory.
WORK LOG
The harvest system generates georeferenced maps that allow you to know in detail the work carried out by the operator. WhiIe operating, it stores such data as date, starting and finishing working times, applied dose, speed, hectares, terrain elevation, harvested area. Our Agromaps Software generates reports and post-application maps of all registered variables, which enables you to visualize and analyze all these data, hence allowing for better decision-making.
SYSTEM COMPONENTS
The system features the following components:
- 7’’ color screen, with SD memory for data storage.
- GPS receiver for geo positioning.
- Cane flow sensor.
- Lift conveyor RPM sensor.
- Tilt sensor for weight compensation.
