COMPARATIVE STUDY ON TYPES OF TRACTORS SUITABLE FOR AGRICULTURAL CONDITIONS IN IRAQ
FURQAN JALAL ALI AL-FRHOOD;
Abstract
The aim of the study was to select the most suitable tractor to complete the
implementation of the basic agricultural operations through suitable time in
the agricultural production conditions in Iraq.
A field experiment was conducted at the Faculty of Agriculture, Baghdad
University 2011, to evaluate the performance rates, determine power and
energy requirement, calculate operating costs and measuring exhaust gases.
To test three tractors of different powers (70 – 80 – 105) HP were used to
execute the commonly mechanized operations in Iraq. Three different types of
operations were used ploughing with mouldboard plough, harrowing with disc
harrow and land levelling by land leveller.
The results obtained from this investigation could be summarized as follows:
The highest actual field capacity 1.035 ha/h was observed with the tractor 105
HP when carrying levelling operation, and the least actual field capacity 0.422
ha/h was observed with the tractor 70 HP when carrying ploughing operation.
The highest total engine power for operations (22.82 kW) was observed with
the tractor of 105 HP when carrying ploughing operation, and the least total
engine power for operations (11.03 kW) was observed with the tractor of 70
HP when carrying levelling operation.
