The purpose of the research is to provide for solving dynamic problems of course stability of a wide-width sowing and row-crop-tractor unit. For constructing a computational scheme for the generated problem applied the central finite-difference method with a second-order accuracy. When developing a machine algorithm, the fractional grid steps are converted by formulas and a vector equation is obtained. The results of scientific and practical research and testing to determine and evaluate performance of machine-tractor units (MTU) consisting of inter row spacing sowing and cultivators with four-wheel tractors were obtained. Studies on appropriateness of increasing coverage area of cotton units based on field size have shown that the shift productivity of eight-row units at planting was lower than that of four-row units when the field area was less than 3 hectares. When the field area was 3 hectares or more, the MTU’s productivity increased by 32–34%. A similar trend has been observed in the inter-row processing units. Field experiments have shown that it is advisable to maintain the existing four-row machine system on the basis of existing energy vehicles for 27-30% of cotton fields. Cauchy problem for finite-difference equations of dynamic problems of course stability of a wide-cut sowing and tilled-tractor unit was formed, in the form of algebraic equations. As a result, it was possible to build 6-, 8- and 10-row cultivator units based on four-wheel tractors.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
