Abstract
Soil constraints limit crop productivity. In order to overcome soil constraints a wide range of agricultural machines are used. Selection of a suitable agricultural machinery is a challenging job as
the performance of each machinery is difficult to evaluate. The performance of the agricultural machineries is generally evaluated through time and resource intensive field works which can only be undertaken at certain times of the year. Similarly, development of new agricultural machineries to increase agricultural production is also based on field experiments. If the interaction between soil and agricultural machinery can be simulated using computer and software technology (a) the performance agricultural machineries can be evaluated (b) more effective agricultural machineries can be designed without performing field tests. In this paper a useful methodology, which includes using of 3D scanner and discrete element method (DEM) to evaluate and design agricultural machinery, has been suggested. The aim is to help and offer a new perspective to the academics working on agricultural machinery and agricultural machinery manufacturers for agricultural machinery design.
