Root Crop Engineering Beet harvesting technology – current status and developments

Authors:
Abstract:

Sugar beet cultivation has not lost any of its importance. This is shown by statistics, but also by the activities in the area of sugar beet harvesting technology. There is a concentration on just a few manufacturers. These focus on detailed improvements to process monitoring and assistance systems. Automated, crop-adapted adjustment of the harvesting group and throughput-dependent beet treatment are worth mentioning here. Telematic and increased ease of operation are further aspects.
