Currently a significant proportion of the cost of
agricultural production is energy costs. Therefore,
considerable attention is paid to energy and resource
saving equipment and technology. In this regard, the
role and importance of the energy assessment of
machines, allowing determining not only the power
characteristics of the power, but fuel consumption
per unit of cultivated area or per unit of output.
Conducting energy assessment of machines and
equipment reduces the economic and labor costs, at
the expense of more detailed and optimal selection of
machines and units for performing certain
manufacturing operations in agricultural production.
In the article we describe energy evaluation of
different tillage agricultural machinery aimed at
determining energy consumption when executing the
set of technological operations machines and
equipment on the operation modes set by the
standards under which stable the operations are
performed. The use of the results of energy
assessments on traction characteristics of agricultural
machines and tractors will allow getting the
maximum effect when performing technological
operations. In turn, the lack of monitoring of key
energy performance of cars during their operation
leads to a partial use, which increases costs
The creation of better conditions for the cultivation
of plants is carried out by means of mechanical
impact on the soil working bodies of machines and
tools, that is, the so-called tillage. Its importance in
the conditions of intensive agriculture cannot be
overemphasized. The use of each scientifically based
crop rotation system of soil tillage is a necessary
condition for further growth of crop yields and
improve soil fertility. Tillage determines the
processes of reproduction, fertility regulation soil
modes, degradation processes and soil conservation.
Important and how self-administration in the system
of minimum tillage, and in addition to the deeper
treatment of soil under traditional agricultural
technologies is superficial and shallow tillage. Disc
harrows are the most applied machine for the
implementation of surface and shallow soil
treatment, performing a loosening of topsoil, leveling
the field surface, the destruction of soil crust,
crumbling lumps of soil, weeding, seeding and
fertilizer. This article describes the design features of
domestic and foreign disc harrows. We have given
their technical characteristics, and consider the
operational and technological parameters
