Optimization of the composition of the harvesting and transport complex

Abstract

The purpose of the article is to obtain additional knowledge, identify patterns of optimization of the harvesting and transport complex and use this knowledge and patterns in further practical activities. The study used methods of classical mathematics, observation, comparison, measurement, and experiment. As a result, the mathematical expectation of “time to fill the hopper” was calculated and justified, the grain yield was calculated and determined by the time of filling the hopper, the number of vehicles was justified by yield and distance to the warehouse from the field. According to the time of loading of the vehicle, coefficients were developed and determined that determine the efficiency of transport work during the transportation of harvest. The obtained research results have theoretical and practical significance for application in agricultural organizations of the Russian Federation, which is implemented in the methodological recommendations for optimization of the composition of harvesting and transport complexes.
