A presentation on the Harvest Monitor system for sugar cane harvesting. High-resolution optical sensors measure cane volume, extraneous matter, fuel consumption, and productivity in real time, letting operators optimize performance and make data-driven decisions during harvest.
Foreign. With Harvest Monitor, you know how many tons were harvested and the variations of the field. The high resolution optical sensors scan the flow of cane through the elevator, instantaneously identifying cane volume and extraneous matter while also calculating fuel consumption per ton harvested. From the cab, the operator can see total tons harvested, harvester productivity, the trash percentage, and fuel consumption. This data can then be used to make on the fly adjustments to the harvester and optimize performance. It can also generate data for decision making from the office. With this information, you can create yield variability maps, which guide cultivating practices and crop renewal strategies. Strategies With Harvest Monitor, it is possible to estimate cane tonnage delivered to the mill, which helps with planning of harvest fronts. Harvesting has evolved, so should.
