ENERGY AND TECHNOLOGICAL ADAPTATION OF GENERAL PURPOSE TRACTORS

The article describes the problems of energy-technological adaptation of general purpose tractors. It was determinedthat the energy-technological adaptation of general-purpose tractors is evaluated by the degree of reduction of its energyconsumption in agricultural technologies when realizing the biopotential of agricultural crops. Grounded traction andenergy modes of tractor operation for the main groups of tillage with unstable traction load. It has been proven that theimplementation of traction and energy indicators of the tractor is effective in assessing their relationship with thebiopotential of cultivated agricultural crops. The theoretically justified and practically implemented method of ensuringthe correspondence of the energy consumption of the tractor unit and the energy loss of the crop of cultivated agriculturalcrops. The proposed method of assessing the biopotential of varietal capabilities of the main agricultural crops is based onthe optimization of the technological process, as well as fertilizers, taking into account meteorological factors and thenatural potential of the soil. The operational and technological evaluation of the energy-technological adaptation ofgeneral-purpose tractors during the harvesting of corn for grain and spring wheat was.
