(objectives)
The aim of the course is to familiarise participants with agricultural machinery technology in its constructional, functional and operational aspects. The constitution of agricultural machinery (endothermic engines, mechanical and hydraulic transmissions, tyres, driving and control organs, implement connection systems, machine safety, ergonomics). The correct use of agricultural machinery (grip, skid control, soil compaction, measurement of working time and losses, field yields, operating costs, cost-benefit analysis). The technologies applicable in livestock farm management.
