Abstract

The research was conducted in clayey loamy soil using two plowing systems (T1 chisel) and (T2 moldboard) and three depths of plowing D (10, 20, 30 cm) and three between the two plates of each of the furrows opener (40, 50, 60 cm). to study the effect of the developed sensor on the mechanical properties (draft force, , energy efficiency, and slip ratio). The results showed the superiority of the machine when used after the chisel (T1) by giving it the least draft force, the lowest slip percentage and the highest rate of energy efficiency. It also showed the superiority of the D3 depth (30 cm) by recording the highest draft force, the lowest energy efficiency and the highest slip rate compared with the two depths (20 and 10 cm). It showed the superiority of the W3 distance (60 cm) over the two distances (40 and 50 cm) by giving it the highest draft force, the lowest energy efficiency, and the highest slip percentage. The effect of the bilateral interactions between each of (tillage systems and the depth of the furrow opener and between the tillage systems and the spacing between furrow opener boards) had a significant effect on the mechanized traits. While the double and triple interactions recorded a significant effect on the slip percentage.
