Field performance of tractor mounted with various implements: a case study/ Nazura Amanda Zainal Abidin and Darius El Pebrian
Field data performance are important in farm management where the proper used of tractor and implements can minimize inputs and fully optimized the machinery. This study is to investigate the efficiency of the implements. The field performance was developed by using Kubota M8540tractor and various m...

Field data performance are important in farm management where the proper used of tractor and implements can minimize inputs and fully optimized the machinery. This study is to investigate the efficiency of the implements. The field performance was developed by using Kubota M8540tractor and various mounted implements. The performance measures effective field capacity ‘wheel slippage and time taken for the implements to complete the task. Three implements that used are disc plough, rotary tiller and seeder machine at constant engine speed 1500 rpm was examined. All the implements were investigated on 20m X 20m site.
