Calculation of hourly income
NOTE
To calculate the plow income, use the following calculation:
R
= L x V x E
X
Where:
R
= Hourly income;
L
= Plow working width (meters);
V
= Average speed of the tractor (meters per hour);
E
= Efficiency: 0.90;
X
= Hectare value = 10,000 m
2
.
Example with AACRP (5 moldboards):
R
= ?
L
= 2.40 m
V
= 5,000 m/h
E
= 0.90
X =
10,000
m
2
R
= 2.40 x 5,000 x 0.90
10,000
R:
The hourly income working with an AACRP that has 5 moldboards will be of,
approximately, 1.08 hectares per hour.
The plow hourly income can vary by physical factors such as humidity, slope,
soil hardness, appropriate adjustments and especially the working speed.
Based on this calculation, we prepared the table on the following page, which shows
the average hourly income and also for a day, that is, nine (9) hours of work.
