What are the classifications of agricultural machinery, and what are its uses

Agricultural machinery is generally classified by purpose. Most of them are specially designed and manufactured according to the characteristics of agriculture and the special requirements of various operations, such as soil tillage machinery, planting and fertilizing machinery, plant protection machinery, crop harvesting machinery, animal husbandry machinery and agricultural product processing machinery. The other part of agricultural machinery is common with other industries, can be directly selected according to the characteristics and needs of agriculture, such as agricultural power machinery, irrigation and drainage machinery water pump, etc. Or according to the characteristics and needs of agriculture, these machines are designed into agricultural variants, such as agricultural vehicles, trailers in agricultural transport machinery and soil and stone machinery in farmland construction machinery.

Agricultural machinery power diesel engine Agricultural machinery can also be classified according to the power used and its supporting mode. The power of agricultural machinery application can be divided into two parts: one part is used for the walking or moving of agricultural machinery, which can be divided into human (hand, shoulder, chest hanging and push and pull), animal traction, tractor traction and power self-propelled type; The other part is used to drive the working parts of agricultural machinery, which can be divided into human (hand, foot, etc.) drive, animal power drive, electromechanical power drive (using internal combustion engine, wind turbine, motor, etc.) and tractor drive. On the same farm machine, the two parts can use the same or different power. According to the supporting way of agricultural machinery and tractor, it can be divided into traction, suspension and semi-suspension types.

According to the operation mode, agricultural machinery can be divided into walking operation and fixed operation two categories. In the agricultural machinery of walking operation, there are two types: continuous walking type and intermittent walking type which are carried out alternately in the process of moving. In the agricultural machinery with fixed operation, there are two types: mobile which can transfer the working location in non-working state and non-mobile which can always fix the working location.

According to the location of operation, agricultural machinery can be divided into field operation (field, pasture and orchard, etc.), yard operation, indoor operation (workshop, computer room, storeroom, greenhouse and livestock house, etc.), water or water operation (river, channel, reservoir and well, etc.), road operation and aviation operation.
