What is agriculture?

Agriculture is an important branch of economy. Economic growth of any country depends on the development of agriculture which supplies people with food and clothing and industry with raw materials.

The word "agre" is a Latin word. It means the cultivation of fields in order to grow crops. Now agriculture also includes the use of land to breed farm animals.

We do not know when people began to grow crops. It was many thousand years ago. Now crop production  and animal husbandry are highly developed branches of agriculture.

Life is impossible without plants. They play a highly, important role in everyday life of people. Plants that ate grown by farmers are known as farm crops. They are used for many different purposes. Most of them are used directly as food for people, some are consumed by farm animals, others are used in industry and medicine.

In order to increase crop yields and animal products our collective and state farms apply widely intensive technologies.

Two branches of agriculture

There are two main branches of agricultural production — crop production and animal husbandry.

Crop production is the practice of growing and harvesting crops. The most important crops grown by man are grain crops, vegetables and grasses. In order to obtain high yields crops are grown under favorable soil and climatic conditions.

Animal husbandry is a branch of agriculture including the breeding of
farm animals and their use. Dairy and beef cattle, hogs, sheep, and poultry
are widely bred throughout the world. Farm animals are highly important
sources of food for man. They are kept for the production of such nutritious
products as meat, milk and eggs.

Many crops grown by man are used in feeding livestock. At the same time manure produced by farm animals is an important source for the maintenance of soil fertility . Most of the nutrients taken by plants from the soil are thus returned. Applying manure, farmers improve the physical condition of the soil.

Thus, crop production and animal husbandry are closely connected with each other.

Plant, its parts and their functions

Plants are highly important sources of food for man and farm animals. They also supply people with clothing, shelter and many other things as well.

To obtain high yields of farm crops it is necessary to study the principal parts of the plant and their functions.

The principal parts of a plant are the root system and the above ground portion consisting of stems, leaves, flowers and seeds.

The root performs two main functions. It absorbs plant nutrients as well as water from the soil and anchors the plant. There are two types of roots: fibrous roots and tap roots. All grain crops have fibrous roots, while tap roots are typical of legumes and root crops. Alfalfa and sugar beets are examples of crops having tap roots.

As to stems and leaves they are usually above the ground. To support leaves and to conduct water and nutrients from the roots to the leaves are the main functions of the stem. The food used by green plants is produced in the leaves through the process known as photosynthesis.

A flower is the part of the plant where seeds are produced. Thus, to produce seeds the plant must have flowers.

All parts of a plant must be developed well in order to function  properly, If conditions for plant growth are not favourable the plant will be weak to develop its parts well.

Classification of field crops

Crops are variously grouped and classified. They may be classified as cultivated crops  such as potatoes and corn or as non-cultivated crops such as wheat or barley.

Crops may also be grouped according to  the duration of their growth. Annual crops complete their life cycle in one growing season. Biennials require two seasons to produce seed.  Perennials grow for   more than two seasons, producing seed each year.

According to their use field crops may be classified into many groups. The most important of them are:

1.  Cereal or Grain Crops. A cereal is a grass grown for its edible grain. Wheat, corn, rye, barley, oats and rice are to be mentioned as the most important grain crops.
2.   Legumes for Seed. The principal legumes grown for seed are field peas, field beans and soybeans. Sometimes the aim of growing them is to improve soil fertility because they are able to fix atmospheric nitrogen through the bacteria living on their roots.
3.   Forage Crops. These are the crops used as feed for farm animals in the form of pasture, hay or silage. Most of them are perennials.

4.  Root Crops, Unlike cereals root crops are grown because of the food value of their roots. There are many root crops grown by man. They are sugar beets, carrots, radishes and others. They are biennials.

5. Tuber Crops. The most important tuber crop cultivated throughout the world is potatoes. Like root crops they are biennials but people grow them as annuals.

The practice of farming

The practice of farming, including the cultivation of the soil (for raising crops) and the raising of domesticated animals. The units for managing agricultural production vary from smallholdings and individually owned farms to corporate-run farms and collective farms run by entire communities or by the government.

Crops . For successful production, the land must be prepared (ploughed, cultivated, harrowed, and rolled), seed must be planted and the growing plants nurtured. This may involve fertilizers, irrigation, pest control by chemicals, and monitoring of acidity or nutrients. When the crop has grown, it must be harvested and, depending on the crop, processed in a variety of ways before it is stored or sold. Greenhouses allow cultivation of plants in cold climates. Hydroponics allows commercial cultivation of crops using nutrient-enriched water instead of soil. Special methods, such as terracing, may be adopted to allow cultivation in steep regions and to retain topsoil in mountainous areas with heavy rainfall.

Animals are raised for wool, milk, leather, dung (as fuel), or meat. They may be semidomesticated, such as reindeer, or fully domesticated but nomadic (where naturally growing or cultivated food supplies are sparse), or kept on a farm. Animal farming involves rearing, feeding, breeding, gathering the produce (eggs, milk, or wool), slaughtering, and further processing such as tanning.

Tillage and Tillage Implements

As you know tillage is used to prepare the ground for seeding or planting, to retard weed growth and to improve the physical condition of soil. Tillage includes various operations: plowing (primary tillage), harrowing (secondary tillage), deep tillage, cultivation, fertilizing, etc.

Primary tillage, or plowing, may be done by various kinds of plows, such as two-way plows, disk plows, rotary plows, etc. The plows may be both tractor-mounted and tractor-drawn.

Tractor-drawn plows are attached to the tractor by an adjustable hitch which permits horizontal adjustment of the plow and prevents "nosing" of plow points. The hitch incorporates a spring release or some other device which disconnects the plow when it strikes an obstacle. In some plows each bottom is held in working position by a heavy spring which permits the bottom to raise and pass over the obstacle. Tractor-drawn plows are provided with a lifting mechanism which raises them from or lowers them to their working position. The lifting mechanism may be either mechanical or hydraulic. There are also1 two levers —one for regulating the depth of plowing, the other for levelling the plow.

A tractor-mounted plow is a compact unit of high maneuverability which is adjusted by means of hydraulic Controls. Due to hydraulic controls the tractor operator can quickly connect and disconnect the implements without leaving the cabin. Tractor-mounted plows, like tractor-drawn plows, have two levers — one is used for regulating the depth, the other — for levelling the plow.

Secondary tillage, or harrowing, is done to refine the ground after plowing. Depending on the physical condition of soil 2 and other factors various kinds of harrows must be used, such as, disc harrow, spike-tooth harrow, spring-tooth harrow, etc.

It goes without saying that all types of harrows, like plows, are either tractor-mounted or tractor-drawn.

There are other implements' intended for retarding weed growth, such as row-crop cultivators, field cultivators, spring-tooth weeders, etc.

. Potatoes, beets

      Potato is a highly important food crop. In addition it is used as livestock feed and as an industrial crop. Now it is grown in most countries of the world.

Good yields are obtained where growing season temperature is between 16 to 21°C and where the rainfall is 12 to 18 inches (дюйм = 2,5 см) per year. So, commercial production is largely limited to die areas where the climate is cool and moist. Potatoes are known to produce better yields when they are grown after alfalfa and are planted in the same field only once (один раз) in six or seven years.

Beets

Beet crop is one of the most widely grown root crops. There are two main kinds of beets, sugar beets and table beets. Both of them are best adapted to growing in the temperate climate.

Table beets are used by people for food when roots are young. At this time they are rich in protein and minerals.

Sugar beet is an industrial crop. It is high in sugar, up to 20 per cent. There are some factors which favour the accumulation of sugar in the roots. They are soil fertility, enough moisture, low temperature.

Most of the sugar beets are grown in Europe including the Soviet Union.

Robots today and tomorrow

Robots are ideal workers not only for industry but for agriculture as well. In the Soviet Union robotization is a young branch of agricultural mechanization. It is highly important because of both certain lack of working hands in the country and the necessity to eliminate hand labour, which is one of the main social and economic problems of the day.

If robots were widely used in agriculture, labour productivity would be raised greatly, crop, meat and milk yields would be increased and the product quality would be improved due to more timely performing of farm operations.

Robot-type agriculture is used now in irrigation systems where people are no longer needed to apply and control water or move irrigation pipelines.

Intensive work has been started on the development of various types of robots designed specially for agriculture. New robots are likely to appear for doing work on fields. Such electronic farmers'will be able to till the soil, to sow seeds and to harvest crops. They will be able even to see weeds and control them. The farmer will only press the necessary buttons on the control panel and then leave the machine which will work unattended.

Time is not very far when many labour-consumin operations on farms will be performed by robots.

Effects of mechanization on American agriculture

The dominant trend in American agriculture in the past years can be summarized in two words - increased productivity.

The increased productivity is a resist of technological revolution. The principal components of this revolution in crop and livestock production have been greater use of fertilizers, improved crop varieties, better breeding and feeding practices, better skills in management, mechanization and automation being the most important among them.

Mechanization and application of other scientific developments to farming have increased the output per farm worker. Hand labour required for farming has markedly decreased while the production per person has increased.

The increase in production is greater in crop farming than in livestock breeding because crop production has been mechanized to a greater extent  than in livestock production.

About 50 years ago 27 per cent of the total population of the country was engaged in agriculture, now the employment in this sector of the economy is about 2.5%. In 1955 labour made up 32 per cent of the cost of farming; by 1980 it only 3.1 per cent. The machinery cost in farming, on the other hand, has continued to increase.

The organization of agriculture in the years to come will use less land, lees labour, fewer but better managers and much more capital, machines and various types of technology. These trends have been in progress for decades and it is unlikely3 that there will be any change from this direction.

Mechanization in livestock raising

Further increase in animal productivity is achieved both by the introduction of new machinery and by wider electrification and automation of different processes on livestock farms.

Some kinds of livestock equipment are almost completely automatic, thus eliminating most of the hand labour. Many farms are using now automatic waterers which provide water to livestock at all times. At the press of the button silage unloaders remove silage from the silo and drop it into the conveyer that carries the silage to the feed troughs. The feeding of grain and hay to dairy cattle has also been almost completely mechanized on some farms. On most farms manure is collected and transported automatically.

Different machines are now being used which permit a better digestion of various feeds by livestock. For instance, grain grinders, feed mixers, forage cutters increase the feeding value of grain, roughages and other feeds.

Milk pipelines connected to milking machines carry the milk to milk tanks where it is automatically cooled to the proper temperature.

In some poultry houses time clock devices are installed so that chickens can be fed automatically at the desired time of the day. On many poultry farms eggs are cleaned, graded and packed primarily by automation.

Mechanization of Soviet farms

Soviet farms have an adequate number of tractors and other farm machinery. But quantitative growth is not all that is important. The quality of farm machines is the problem which should be paid much attention to.

Today such processes as soil tillage, planting, harvesting and transportation are all performed by machinery. One can say that the level (уровень) of mechanization in crop growing is high.

The mechanization of animal husbandry is a more difficult problem. The USSR has started to use the industrial methods hi this branch of agriculture by developing large livestock-breeding complexes. These complexes are now often called meat and milk factories. The level of mechanization is the same there as in industry. The same conveyer system is used at such factories but they produce animal products.

Trends in Tractor Design

It is known that the need for more food, feed and industrial crops regularly grows. Farmers usually meet these ever increasing demands by increasing crop yields. This largely depends on the quantity and quality of the machinery supplied by tractor and agricultural engineering industry. The most important machine used on farms is the tractor. The heart of the tractor is its power unit, that is, the engine.

The main trend adopted in designing new tractors and other farm machinery is as follows:

• to increase the capacity of the engine, mainly by increasing its power and field speed;
• to improve the design of transmission, chassis and the engine;
• to reduce fuel consumption and maintenance time;
• to improve labour conditions for tractor operators, etc.

The designers said that this trend would result in basic improvements in tractor design. As a result, for example, both the wheeled and track-type general purpose tractors T-150 used in conjunction with trailing or mounted machines and implements are now able to perform not only a number of routine operations, such as soil cultivation, sowing and harvesting, but also land reclamation, earth-moving and other jobs. Of great importance now is 3 that both the wheeled and the crawler models have up to 70% of standardized parts, which is of great importance.

The most important feature of the T-150 is its high power which provides higher field speeds as compared to other general-purpose tractors. Its other important feature is the dual transmission system. The tractor is equipped with an all-metal cab which may be heated and ventilated. When tractor operators began to work on the T-150 they said the new cab had greatly improved their labour conditions.

The basic technical data  (specifications) of the T-150 crawler-type tractor are as follows: engine power — 150 hp, at 200 r.p.m. fuel consumption per brake horse power — 185 gph speeds — eight forward and four reverse range of speeds — 2.68 to 15.89 km/h track — 1435 mm ground clearance — 300 mm average soil compacting pressure — 0,44 kg/cm2 mass (weight) —7400 kg

Harvesting Machinery

Harvesting machinery or equipment is a mechanical device used for harvesting. There are several types of harvesting machines which are generally classified by crop. Reapers are used for cutting cereal grains, threshers for separating the seed from the plant; whereas corn or maize harvesting is performed by employing a specially designed mechanical device mechanical corn pickers. A typical harvesting machine comprises of a traveling part, a reaping part, and a baler part.

Harvesting machines are also used for controlling the production of weeds. Machines like field choppers, balers, mowers, crushers and windrowers are the common examples of this category. A forage harvester is used for cutting and chopping of almost all silage crops.

Losses in harvesting grain crops

Grain harvest losses result from shattering of the standing grain, shattering during windrowing, picking up the window with the combine, and threshing, separating and cleaning in the combine. Estimates of acceptable losses for small grains such as wheat, barley and oats are placed at 3 percent of total yield. Total yield is harvested yield plus harvest losses. It is usually very difficult to reduce total losses below 1-2 percent so the operator must decide on the value of the crop, the cost of combining and the time available for combining or climate conditions. Some harvest loss is unavoidable in order to get a reasonably clean threshing job done in the time available.

Loss studies show a considerable amount of grain is left in the field due to shattering out of the grain heads. This can occur at several stages in the harvest operation. A considerable amount of grain is lost from the standing grain. A hailstorm on standing grain can shell heads, break them off and cause severe lodging problems. Wind can blow entire heads down or shell out a number of kernels. As the grain moisture content decreases, susceptibility to shatter and birds becomes greater. Some grain varieties are more shatter resistant than others. Cutting grain at moisture contents of 20-35 percent will help to avoid some of the shatter loss.

Random field checks show that combine operators are doing a good job of setting their combines to thresh and separate the grain. But more concern should be devoted to getting the grain into the machine.

Farmers usually adjust their machines to recommendations in the operator's manual for the particular crop to be harvested. In the field small adjustments should be performed according to field conditions.

Cultural practices

Before planting a grower has to perform some tillage operations that insure proper environment for germination. The first tillage operation is plowing. It may be done either in the fall or in spring, depending on the crop and the region. Harrowing and rolling are the operations that are known to insure a level and firm seedbed.

Nowadays the traditional tillage practices are increasingly replaced by minimum tillage. Under minimum tillage the number of operations is reduced. Farm machines can prepare the soil, apply fertilizers, and plant the seed in one operation. Main advantages of this method are lower soil compaction and lower labour and energy costs.

Planting the seed is usually done when the soil and the air are warm enough. For cereals to germinate well two factors must be controlled during planting: depth and rate. Everybody knows the depth of planting the seed to depend largely on the type of the soil and the size of the seed. The coarse seeds of corn and peas are to be planted much deeper than fine seeds of clover or alfalfa. The establishment of high-quality stand is also favoured by a proper seeding rate. Too thick or too thin sowing lowers grain production.

Harvesting is the last cultural practice. Mechanical harvesting helps farmers obtain highest yields of good quality.

History of the plow

First steel plows came to the fields of America in 1937. First plows were of the "walking" type, that is, the operator walked behind the plow while horses pulled it.

Some decades later the first riding plow was developed. The plow was mounted on wheels and pulled by two to four  horses.  It had a place for the operator to sit. The operator could plow two acres per day, as compared to about one acre with the walking plow.

Today there are tractor-drawn plows that can plow an acre or more per hour.

Mechanization in crop production

Tillage practices vary with soil and climatic conditions and the crop that is to be grown. Tillage includes plowing, harrowing and rolling the soil. There are some purposes of tilling the soil. They are to improve the aeration and temperature conditions, to produce a firm soil and to control weeds. Different types of plows, harrows and rollers are now available to till the soil.

Seed should be sown in a firm, moist soil and covered at a proper depth to germinate rapidly and uniformly. Many various types of grain drills and planters have been developed to suit varying farm requirements. Some modern drills are equipped with attachments for seeding legume and grass seed and for spreading fertilizers. So, seed can be sown and fertilizer spread in one operation. Fertilizers can also be broadcast before planting. Recently attachments have been added to planters for applying insecticides and herbicides to the soil.

Harvesting crops is the final field operation. Combines that harvest and thresh small grains and some other crops have displaced most threshing machines or threshers. For harvesting to be successful, one should grow a variety that is adapted to mechanical harvesting. The plants should be of uniform height and should mature uniformly. Root crops and potatoes are harvested with root lifters and potato diggers respectively.

Equipment for planting cereals

Broadcasting by hand was used in the USA as the main method of planting wheat and other small grains about a century ago. Later various types of grain drills and seeders have been developed.

Today, with a 12-foot (фут = 30,5 cm) tractor-drawn drill one person can seed 50 to 60 acres per day at a proper rate and at uniform depth. To increase the daily acreage two or more of these drills are combined together.

Planting

The warm-season cereals are grown in tropical lowlands year-round and in temperate climates during the frost-free season. Rice is commonly grown in flooded fields, though some strains are grown on dry land. Other warm climate cereals, such as sorghum, are adapted to arid conditions.

Cool-season cereals are well-adapted to temperate climates. Most varieties of a particular species are either winter or spring types. Winter varieties are sown in the autumn, germinate and grow vegetative, then become dormant during winter. They resume growing in the springtime and mature in late spring or early summer. This cultivation system makes optimal use of water and frees the land for another crop early in the growing season.

Winter varieties do not flower until springtime because they require vernalization: exposure to low temperature for a genetically determined length of time. Where winters are too warm for vernalization or exceed the hardiness of the crop (which varies by species and variety), farmers grow spring varieties. Spring cereals are planted in early springtime and mature later that same summer, without vernalization. Spring cereals typically require more irrigation and yield less than winter cereals.

Importance of machinery and energy in agriculture

More and more machines are used on farms today replacing hand labour and increasing labour productivity. With machines and power available farmers not only can do more work and do it more economically, but (hey can do higher-quality work and the work may be finished in a shorter and more favourable time.

Machines that are used for crop production include those that till the soil, plant the crops, perform various cultural practices during the growing season and harvest the crops.

Many machines are known to be powered by tractors. Implements such as plows, cultivators and planters may be mounted on a tractor or they may be  pulled by a tractor.

However, an increasing number of farm machines are now self-propelled. These machines are grain combine harvesters, cotton pickers, forage harvesters, and many other specialized farm machines.

Machines that do not require mobility are usually powered with electric motors. Such machines include silage unloaders, livestock feeding equipment and milking machines.

Farm machines we use today are quite different from those the farmers used two or even one decade ago. The tractors, tractor-drawn planters and drills were smaller and less productive. They could plant less acres per day than the machines do now.
