DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe latest, extensively updated edition of Farm Power and Machinery Management continues the tradition of providing students, farmers, farm operators, and farm managers with comprehensive information on how to properly manage and optimize the use of mechanized equipment to reduce costs and maximize profits. This full-featured text analyzes the factors that comprise machinery management, explains the functions of the various machines and mechanisms as they affect economic operation, and offers contemporary approaches and procedures for making management decisions. The authoritative coverage of current management principles and the machinery-operating details make this text an outstanding choice for courses in agricultural education, agricultural mechanization, agricultural business, and agricultural engineering. An understanding of agricultural practices, college algebra, and trigonometry are adequate preparation for using this text. Abundant figures, photographs, and charts, along with problems and laboratory exercises, reinforce the applicability of significant concepts, thereby empowering readers to become successful farm machinery managers and operators. New or updated features and coverage in the Eleventh Edition . . . • photos of tractors, implements, and special crop machines • IRS policy related to farm machinery • expanded list of timeliness factors • instrumentation available to farm machines • tractor test results • required diesel engine emission control • constantly variable transmission (CVT) • tire data and oil specifications • custom, rental, and estimated costs for farm machinery operations • remote sensing of field conditions • farm safety data • number of machines on US farms • US crop areas and values

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAgricultural mechanization is a sine qua non to remove drudgery, improve working comfort, enhance timeliness, reduce losses and increase production and productivity. Accordingly, use of better power viz., tractors and different types of agricultural machines in Indian agriculture has risen sharply on Indian farms to boost food and fibre production. But to safe guard the user s interest, to ensure better quality and reliability of machines and for sustained growth of farm machinery industry, there is a need for sound scientific testing and evaluation of farm machines by using instrumentation and accepted methodology. Thus, testing and evaluation holds the proper key to standardization and quality control of agricultural machinery for better acceptability and sustained farm production. To satisfy the genuine need of different sectors, this book has been prepared. It is expected to serve as a textbook for the students of Agricultural Engineering degree and postgraduate degree programme. It may also serve the needs of professional engineers, scientists, testing institutions and research organizations dealing with testing and evaluation of agricultural machinery. This book will also cater to the needs of tractor and agricultural implement manufacturing industries, consultants, agricultural universities/colleges as a valuable reference for quailty imporvement and standardization. It is hoped this book will be a valuable reference for all students and professionals. Contents Chapter 1: Status of Agricultural Mechanization in India; Chapter 2: Testing and Evaluation System in India; Chapter 3: Testing and Evaluation of Agricultural Tractor; Chapter 4: Testing and Evaluation of Tillage Machinery; Chapter 5: Testing and Evalaution of Seed-cum-Fertilizer Drills; Chapter 6: Testing and Evaluation of Rice Transplanter; Chapter 7: Testing and Evaluation of Irrigation Pumps; Chapter 8: Testing and Evaluation of Manually Operated Sprayers and Dusters; Chapter 9: Testing and Evaluation of Combine Harvester; Chapter 10: Testing and Evaluation of Power Thresher; Chapter 11: Data Acquisition, Processing and Analysing by Personal Computers; Chapter 12: Safety Testing of Agricultural Machinery.
