• The modern combine harvester, is a versatile machine designed to efficiently harvest a variety of grain crops. The name derives from its combining three separate harvesting operations—reaping, threshing, and winnowing—into a single process. Among the crops harvested with a combine are wheat, oats, rye, barley, corn (maize), sorghum, soybeans, flax (linseed), sunflowers and canola. The separated straw, left lying on the field, comprises the stems and any remaining leaves of the crop with limited nutrients left in it: the straw is then either chopped, spread on the field and ploughed back in or baled for bedding and limited-feed for livestock.

Harvesting crops manually can be a very tedious job as it requires so many different operations and labour. But the use of combine harvester can solve all your problems and make harvesting a simple job for you.

The farming sector has evolved a lot in the past few decades. Now, farming has not remained within that small area, people have started doing it on a large scale by using modern techniques. With every advancement, you have to be get prepared with its upcoming challenge, and here also with the expansion in the field resulted in more harvesting area. Harvesting is a very tedious task and therefore some improvisation in harvesting techniques is very necessary. So, below is the list of top five harvesting machines with their proper description.

 

1. Potato Harvester

The potato grows under the soil, and therefore, harvesting it becomes even more difficult, as along with labour it involves risk of various unseen insects that live in the soil. To harvest potatoes comfortably, potato harvester is there which effectively separates soil from the roots and give us our harvest.

 

2. Row Weeder

Wedding is a very essential practice in agriculture. The removal of weeds becomes more important because they hinder the growth of our actual crop. The automatic weeder can uproot the weeds without harming our crop and thereby will save you from various dire consequences that can occur due to overgrowing of weeds.

 

3. Automatic Cow Milking Machine

Milk is one of the basic necessities of our life and it comes from Cows and buffaloes. The automatic cow milking machine brought an easier way to get out milk from this livestock. The machine can get out the milk and hence leads to an increase in milk production of the country.

 

4. Carrot Harvester and Separator

The machine is quite similar to potato harvester but is specifically designed to give better output in case of carrots. It will provide you with a lot of comforts while harvesting carrots.

 

5. Lettuce Harvester

The advanced robotic lettuce harvester is very helpful to aspirate residues of crop and leaves on the ground. It will save a lot of time and labour by doing so. The scattered residual is very difficult to collect manually and therefore, using such machines is very beneficial.

All these machines are very advanced and are future of our agriculture. Also, increment at an individual level will result in the increment of our nation's economy. Apart from these specific machines, several other machines are available for harvesting. Use of these machines will also reduce the huge amount of labour that is required to carry out harvesting operation. Therefore, one should definitely opt for such modern and technical machines to enhance productivity.

Advantages of Combine Harvester:

• Reduces labour
• Saves time
• Produces cleaner grains
• Reduces the crop loss
• Costs less than manual farming
• Reduces dependency on others

Combine harvesters are one of the most economically important labour saving inventions, significantly reducing the fraction of the population engaged in agriculture.

Combines are equipped with removable header that are designed for particular crops. The standard header, sometimes called a grain platform, is equipped with a reciprocating knife cutter bar, and features a revolving reel with metal teeth to cause the cut crop to fall into the auger once it is cut. A variation of the platform, a "flex" platform, is similar but has a cutter bar that can flex over contours and ridges to cut soybeans that have pods close to the ground. A flex head can cut soybeans as well as cereal crops, while a rigid platform is generally used only in cereal grains.

While a grain platform can be used for corn, a specialized corn head is ordinarily used instead. The corn head is equipped with snap rolls that strip the stalk and leaf away from the ear, so that only the ear (and husk) enter the throat. This improves efficiency dramatically, since so much less material must go through the cylinder. The corn head can be recognized by the presence of points between each row.

Self-propelled Gleaner combines could be fitted with special tracks instead of tires to assist in harvesting rice. These tracks can be made to fit other combines by adding adapter plates. Some combines, particularly the pull type, have tires with a deep diamond tread which prevents sinking in mud.
