In order to obtain a quality silage, it is necessary to increase the density and to remove oxygen from inside the silage as much as possible. For this, the silage must be compactedeffectively. Density and quality of silage are influenced by pressure, moisture, compacting vehicle mass and layer thickness (Roy et al. 2001). Muck and Holmes (2000) observed that density of silage is variable in bunker silos. Higher density in silage is important for silage quality and preservationfor longer period of time. More dry matter is stored in the same volume and costs of storage are reduced.Savoieet al. (2004) found that the density of silage was affected by layer thickness and pressure but not by time of compaction under laboratory condition. Latsch (2014) indicated that one main problem in compacting work of silage in bunker silos seems to be the heterogeneity of bulk density. This problem occurs, when forage is not well distributed after unloading and peaks and troughs of grass lie directly side by side. Borreani and Tabacco (2010) reported that quality of

After harvesting sunflower stalk was chopped with three different methods by using three different stalk chopper machines. Two different rotary type machines (RT1 and RT2) and heavy duty disc harrow (CON) were applied in the experiment. Heavy duty disc harrow used as conventional method. Particle size distribution after chopping, management parameters of the machines and energy requirements were determined in the experiment. Maximum frequency with 37.09% for RT1 and 24.62% for CON were found in the stalk size group of 102 - 173 mm. Whereas, maximum frequency with 31.08% was obtained in the size group of 30 - 101 mm for RT2. The highest fuel consumption (19.28 L.ha-1) was obtained in CON method and the highest field efficiency with 0.886 ha.h-1 was found in RT2. RT1 has 756.1 MJ.ha-1total energy requirements. RT2 has 868.3 MJ.ha-1 and CON has 944.3 MJ.ha-1. The differences among methods in frequency of particle sizes, values of fuel consumption and total energy requirements were found to be statistically significant.

In this research, a throathless type fixed bed downdraft gasifier prototype with mechanical stirrer has been designed for rice straw gasification. Rice straw was pelleted by using different additive materials and these pellet samples were gasified. For this purpose, pure (PRF), 3% PVA doped (PVA3), 5% molasses doped (PM5), 5% charcoal powder doped (PC5) and 15% charcoal powder doped (PC15) pellets were used. Experiments were conducted using throathless type reactor. The effects of air inlet direction, air excess coefficient and mixing process the gasification efficiency during the gasification process were investigated. In addition to these, effects of temperature in the reactor core zone on glass transition and agglomeration have been observed. According to research results, it was determined that glass transition started when the temperature in core zone exceeds 800°C. The best result was obtained in gasification process with upper air intake and excess air coefficient of 0,20. It was observed that the mixing process have not positive result during the gasification of rice straw. Pellet samples were gasified using most appropriate method that was determined by experiments and obtained synthesis gas yields were compared. The maximum lower heating value of syngas was determined for gasification process that was performed using pure rice straw pellets (PRF) as 4,430 MJm-3 while the minimum lower heating value was determined for gasification process that was performed using 15% coal dust doped pellets (PC15) as 3,899 MJm-3. The highest gasification efficiency was determined using pure rice straw pellets (PRF) as 64,8 % and the lowest gasification efficiency was determined using 15% coal dust doped pellets (PC15) as 59,6%. Difference between gasification efficiency of pellet samples was found statistically significant.

Mevcut durumda 33.550 da’lik alanda uretim yapilmaktadir. Kanola hasadi bicerdoverle yapilmasina ragmen yore icin yeni bir bitki olmasindan dolayi hasat kayiplari oldukca yuksek oldugu ifade edilmektedir. Bu calismada, kano la bitkisinin hasadina yonelik bazi parameterelerin belirlenmesi ve farkli calisma kosullarinda hasat kayiplarinin belirlenmesi amaclanmistir. Bu amac dogrultusunda, uc farkli bicerdover ilerleme hizinda, uc bator devri, sabit fan devri, dolap konumu onde ve yukarida olmak uzere denemeler yapilmistir. Denemelerde uc farkli tip ve modelde bicerdover (eski, yeni, kanola hasat tablasi takili) kullanilmistir. Arastirma sonuclarina gore; farkli ayar kademesinde yapilan dane kaybi olcumlerinde, 1985 model eski bicerdoverde ucceyrek metotta %17.96, tava olcum metodunda %16.29; 2005 model yeni bicerdoverde ucceyrek metotta %7.15, tava olcum metodunda % 6.49, kanola hasat tablasi olan 2006 model bicerdoverde ise ucceyrek metotta %2.95, tava olcum metodunda % 2.62 ol arak saptanan dane kayiplarinin, makine ilerleme hizinin 4,5 km/h, bator devrinin 700d/d en az kaybin oldugu ayar kademesidir. Hasat’ta dane kaybi en cok eski model bicerdoverde, en az ise kanola hasat tablasi olan bicerdoverde tespit edilmistir. Kanola hasat tablasi takili bicerdoverde urunun dane kaybinin az olmasindaki en onemli faktor her bicerdoverin bicme genisligine uyumlu kullanim kolayligina sahip olmasidir. Kanola hasat tablasinin kullanilmasi ve urune gore yapilacak makine ayarlari ile dane kaybinin cok azaldigini sonucu ortaya cikmistir.

In this way, stalks can be chopped during harvesting and this will be useful in respect to saving time, labor, and energy. In addition, field traffic will decrease by using this unit.The alternative chopping unit may replace the conventional methods. For this objective, the developed chopping unit was tested in three different types of chopping methods. These methods were called Machine 1, Machine 2 and Machine 3. All methods were tested with two and three blade modules. The best results were obtained with 3 flat blades modules on Machine-2. While the average stalk size of Machine-2 was 14 cm, this value was 9.6 cm in 3 flat blades. With this machine the surface covering rate was 26.25%, the average height of stalk was 11.53 cm. This paper describes the structural features of the machine, the design of the main working parts, determination of the parameters of the position of the blade modules, and presents the performance tests.
