A brush roller ginkgo leaf picker has been designed to improve harvesting efficiency and reduce losses caused by manual failure to pick leaves in time under large-scale planting areas. The ginkgo leaf picker is mainly composed of crawler chassis, gantry frame, brush roller picking parts, and collecting box. The kinematics of the brush roller is analyzed for the picking omission situation. An experimental platform for picking ginkgo biloba leaves was established. Three parameters, namely roller speed, moving speed, and roller inclination, were selected for optimization. Then the maximum net harvest rate and the minimum damage rate were achieved. The orthogonal test showed that when the roller speed was 130 rev/min, the moving speed was 0.25 m/s, and the roller inclination was 32°, the picking effect was the best, the net harvest rate was 93.32%, the damage rate was 1.42%, and the damage degree of the trunks was slight. The experiment proved that the brush-roller ginkgo leaf picker has a good picking effect, which can provide a reference for the optimization design of ginkgo leaf harvesting machinery under the dwarf dense planting mode.","PeriodicalId":48507,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Agricultural Engineering","volume":"4 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135216235","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A proximal sensing platform is close to the vegetation, while a remote sensing platform, such as unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), is more distant but has the advantage of rapidity to investigate plots. The study aims to compare multispectral and hyperspectral data acquired with remote and proximal sensing platforms. The comparison between the two sensors aims at understanding the different responses their use can provide on a crop, such as olive trees having a complex canopy. The multispectral data were acquired with a DJI multispectral camera mounted on the UAV Phantom 4. Hyperspectral acquisitions were carried out with a FieldSpec® HandHeld 2™ Spectroradiometer in the canopy portions exposed to South, East, West, and North. The multispectral images were processed with Geographic Information System software to extrapolate spectral information for each cardinal direction’s exposure. The three main Vegetation indices were used: normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), normalized difference red-edge index (NDRE), and modified soil adjusted vegetation index (MSAVI). Multispectral data could describe the total variability of the whole plot differentiating each single plant status. Hyperspectral data were able to describe vegetation conditions more accurately; they appeared to be related to the cardinal exposure. MSAVI, NDVI, and NDRE showed correlation r =0.63**, 0.69**, and 0.74**, respectively, between multispectral and hyperspectral data. South and West exposures showed the best correlations with both platforms.","PeriodicalId":48507,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Agricultural Engineering","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136014731","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The changes in total phenolic content (TPC), total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and individual phenolic contents bioaccessibility, drying characteristics, and colour values of mushroom slices were investigated. IR-HPD provided 13.11 to 30.77% higher energy savings than HPD and reduced drying time between 9.48 and 26.72%. Page, Modified Page models were considered the best for predicting the thin layer drying behaviour of mushroom slices. The effective moisture diffusivity (Deff) value increased with IR power and ranged between 6.491x10-10 and 9.023x10-10 m2s-1. The contents of TPC, TAC, and individual phenolics in mushroom slices were significantly reduced (p<0.05) after drying. In vitro the bioaccessibility of phenolic compounds and TAC generally decreased, whereas TPC bioaccessibility was increased. Colour values were decreased except for a* value that increased after drying. Thermal imaging results showed that IR lamps increase the temperature of the products in the middle close to the lamp by approximately 1.5°C. In addition, thermal imaging gave a better understanding and visualised the effect of different power IR lamps on the temperature distribution of the products according to their distance from the lamp. As a result, drying mushrooms with a hybrid drying system combined with IR and heat pump dryer provided higher energy savings than HPD, reduced drying time, and maintained the physical and nutritional characteristics of mushrooms. Overall, the use of IR-HPD is an alternative tool that allows us to obtain high-quality dried mushrooms with good nutritional attributes and a high amount of bioaccessible polyphenols.","PeriodicalId":48507,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Agricultural Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136211309","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed system includes binocular cameras, differential satellites, and inertial sensors. The method of extracting the headland boundary line combining the hue, saturation, and value-fixed threshold segmentation method and random sample consensus algorithm and planning the headland-turning trajectory of a robot based on the multiorder Bezier curve are used as control methods. In addition, a headland-turning tracking model of a safflower picking robot is designed, and a path-tracking control algorithm is developed. A field test verifies the performance of the designed headland-turning navigation system. The test results show that the accuracy of the judgment result regarding the existence of a headland is higher than 96%. In headland boundary detection, the angle deviation is less than 1.5˚, and the depth value error is less than 50 mm. The headland-turning path tracking test result shows that at a turning speed of 0.5 km/h, the average lateral deviation is 37 mm, and the turning time is 24.2 seconds. Compared to the 1 km/h, the turning speed of 0.5 km/h provides a better trajectory tracking effect, but the turning time is longer. The test results verify that this navigation system can accurately extract the headland boundary line and can successfully realise the headland-turning path tracking of a safflower picking robot. The results presented in this study can provide a useful reference for the autonomous navigation of a field robot.","PeriodicalId":48507,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Agricultural Engineering","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136064012","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The five potential factors of RUSLE impacting soil erosion were estimated through remote sensing data, enabling a comprehensive and informed assessment of soil erosion. The results of the analysis revealed that the average annual soil loss from the study area varied between 0 t.ha-1.yr-1 and 202.10 t.ha-1.yr-1. Higher annual soil loss was estimated in the western part of the study area, which ranged from 15 t.ha-1.yr-1 to 25 t.ha-1.yr-1 as compared to other parts of the study area. The Sangali district, in general, can be categorised as a low erosion potential district (0-5 t.ha-1.yr-1).

A study was undertaken to design, develop, and evaluate the performance of an electric motor powered maize sheller.
