The Analysis of the Mechanization Technology for Cotton Stalk Harvesting in China

摘要

Cotton is one of the main economic crops in China. The cotton stalk's harvest is labor-intensive, timecosting and low-efficient, so it is urgent for us to develop applicable mechanical harvesting techniques. This paper summarized the current research state of harvesting cotton stalk and compared the harvest parameters of the existing harvest machinery in China, moreover, analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of existing harvest technology, some suggestions of harvest technology were put forward. Furthermore, some constructive ways were provided for the development of cotton stalk harvest machinery.
