Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Kinetic Parameters of a Super Heavy Chisel Plow Under Various Operating ConditionsS. A. Al-Suhaibani, A. Al-Janobi, A. E. GhalyProblem statement: Tillage is a process of creating a desirable soil condition for seed germination and growth. The tillage of soil is considered to be one of the biggest farm operations as the tillage operation requires the most energy on the farm. Chisel plow is widely used by farmers as a primary tillage tool. Performance data for chisel plow operation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,659 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment and Evaluation of Tractors and Tillage Implements Instrumentation SystemS. A. Al-Suhaibani, A. A. Al-Janobi, Y. N. Al-MajhadiProblem statement: Field machines contribute a major portion of the total cost of crop production. Proper selection and matching of farm machinery is essential in order to reduce the cost of crop production. Performance data for tractors and implements are, therefore, essential for farm machinery operators and manufacturers alike. The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate an … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,313 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of a Comprehensive Computer Program for Predicting Farm EnergyS.A. Al-Hamed, S.A. Al-Suhaibani, F.S. Mohammad, M.F.I. WahbyProblem statement: The agricultural industry is a major user of energy. Energy is used directly for operating agricultural machinery and equipment on the farm and indirectly in the manufacturing of fertilizers and pesticides and processing of agricultural products off the farm. In order to reduce the cost of agricultural production, energy uses on the farm must be identified and optimized … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,068 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLong-term Effect of Conventional and No-Tillage Production Systems on Nitrous Oxide Fluxes from Corn (Zea mays L.) Field in Southwestern QuebecAbdirashid Elmi, Bano Mehdi, Chandra Madramootoo et al.Problem statement: There is a growing trend in the adoption of conservation tillage as an alternative to conventional tillage farming system. Implications of this agricultural management shift with respect to nitrous oxide (N2O) emission, which has been a topic of intense research for the past few decades, is not yet completely understood. Approach: This study was conducted on a 2.4 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,021 accessesView PDFCite
