Yield Monitoring of Sugar Cane

Biosystems Engineering, 2007
The main objective of this paper is to present a yield monitor specifically designed for the implementation of precision agriculture in sugar cane crops. The overall system includes a mass flow sensor, a global positioning system receiver, and a data acquisition system.

The effect of liming on sugar beet yield and quality

2007
These investigations aim to determine effect of carbocalk calcization on sugar beet yield and quality.Dose of 15 t/ha and 30t/ha of carbokalk (byproduct in the Osijek Sugar factory), was applied on the chosen plot in autumn 1999. Carbokalk contained 48.2 % of CaO. The plot was selected on the basis of a soil analysis, i.e. two acid soils was chosen (pH

Agricultural practices in relation to yield and quality of sugar beet: Yield and yield components

Sugar Tech, 2008
The root number/feddan of the two seasons sown with planter showed distinct advantage compared to the manual sowing. The narrower the ridge space (15 cm) the higher, the root numbers/fed. (30716 and 31175 in both seasons, respectively). The differences between soaking treatments with respect to their effect on root number/feddan were not significance ...

Sugar Cane Yield Monitoring System

Applied Engineering in Agriculture, 2010
The objectives of this study were to develop a scale to continuously weigh sugar cane as it was being harvested, to determine the scale's accuracy, and to statistically analyze the effects of variety, maturity, flow-rate, and section/row length on the accuracy.

Sugar Cane Yield Monitoring System

2001 Sacramento, CA July 29-August 1,2001, 2001
This project involved the design and testing of a sugar cane yield monitoring system, mounted on a Cameco sugar cane combine. The sugar cane yield monitoring system was comprised of a yield sensor (scale), a data acquisition system, and a differential global positioning system (DGPS).

Influence of subsoiling on the yield of sugar‐beets

Zeitschrift für Pflanzenernährung und Bodenkunde, 1987
AbstractRoot growth and yield of sugar‐beets were studied on two Belgian silt loam soils and one alluvial clay soil after subsoiling to a depth of 60 cm. The removal of the plough sole layer, characterized by penetration resistances > 3 MPa, resulted in an increase of the root quantity and a higher availability of water.

Yield and plant population in sugar beet

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1928
Three years of subsidised sugar-beet growing in England has made clear the chief agricultural features of the crop. Many of our soils suit it well; the climate is favourable; it fits satisfactorily into some of our typical rotations. With the 1928 crop will come into operation the first of the subsidy reductions.

Yield improvements in carob sugar extraction

Process Biochemistry, 1991
Abstract Two multistage methods of sugar extraction from carob pods were compared with a single stage extraction/pressing process. A multistep extraction/pressing process produced a yield improvement of 6·6%. A second process based on the recycling of press liquor through a multistage series of vessels was not only considerably simpler and more ...

Peroxidase as biochemical measure of fresh weight and sugar yield in sugar-beet

Experientia, 1973
L'activite peroxydasique est toujours nettement plus elevee dans les tubercules de populations de Betterave caracterises par un poids frais moyen peu eleve et par une forte teneur en sucre. Cette correlation est decelable dans les plantules de quelques jours: elle peut donc servir de critere biochimique de selection.

Calculating sugar yields in high solids hydrolysis of biomass

Bioresource Technology, 2011
Calculation of true sugar yields in high solids enzymatic hydrolysis of biomass is challenging due to the varying liquid density and liquid volume resulting from solid solubilization. Ignoring these changes in yield calculations can lead to significant errors. In this paper, a mathematical method was developed for the estimation of liquid volume change
