Mathematical model for improved mass flow estimation in the feeder housing of a forage harvester
… to estimate mass flow rate in a self-propelled forage harvester is to measure the displacement of feed rollers as material enters the machine. In this work, a mathematical model that captures the interaction between the feed rollers and the incoming material was developed to improve the accuracy …

Determination of the air and crop flow behaviour in the blowing unit and spout of a pull-type forage harvester
The energy requirements of forage harvesters can be quite high and can sometimes determine the size of tractor needed on a farm. Therefore, improving the energy efficiency of the forage harvester could allow a farm to reduce costs by using a smaller tractor that is less expensive and more …

Forage Yield Variability on New York Dairy Farms
… footprint by feeding more homegrown forage. As a consequence higher yields will reduce feed imports and enhance nutrient use efficiency. To improve forage production, limitations to production need to be identified. While yield records can provide integral information, whole farm …
