Raising the Efficiency of Seohen's Model to Predict Soil Resistance Faced by Chisel Plow
Abstract
This research was carried out to study the effect of crop factor, which is represented in some plant roots of crops residues (broad bean and wheat) on soil mechanical properties (cohesion strength, C, and internal friction angle, Φ), and thus, the effect of these roots on the power requirements of chisel plow to face the soil resistance was studied. Soil mechanical properties and power requirements of chisel plow (7 blades) were measured in the field directly at various soil depths of (0.05, 0.1, 0.15, and 0.2 m) with and without roots at constant tractor forward speed of about 4 km/h. Moisture content of the soil, broad bean roots, and wheat roots were 21%, 16%, and 14%, respectively, The results showed that the effect of roots of previous crops residues had a significant effect on the soil mechanical properties and power requirements for chisel plow when using the crop factor, which is represented in characteristic of crop residual roots in terms of root mean diameter.
