A prerequisite for high-quality cultivation of field crops is pre-sowing leveling of the soil surface and creating an optimal soil structure. However, insufficient attention is paid to analytical studies of the influence of working surfaces of tillage machines during seedbed preparation for small-seed crops, in particular. The purpose of this work is to study the impact model of the soil
compaction roller, which, while performing the main cultivation, will ensure compliance with agrotechnical requirements for sowing. The authors applied system approach for conducting analytical studies to develop a scheme of interaction of the rodtype soil compaction roller with the soil. They applied mathematical models to determine its optimal parameters and operating modes. The formalized mathematical model was used to design a rotating roller with specified parameters and operation modes. In particular, the design of a soil compaction roller-leveler was developed. The roller is a hollow drum mounted on a support frame attached to a tractor or a cultivator. The working tool rotates using closed-type bearings mounted on the axle. A hollow drum consists of disks having an arcuate cross-section with a convexity. The disks hold replaceable mesh elements, which can be changed depending on the required conditions for the coefficient of structure and alignment. Movable straps are fixed in the cavities of hollow drum disks. When performing a laboratory field experiment, the response signals were determined by instruments from the Litvinov Field Laboratory (LFL). Soil samples were taken from the surface horizon with a depth of 5.. .6 cm. The experiments were carried out on sod-medium podzolic sandy loam and light loamy soils in accordance with the approved method. Field tests on the use of the new tool have shown an increase in the amount of agronomically valuable fraction during seedbed preparation on sandy loam soils by 4.0%, on light loam soils by 4.2%, while ensuring an increase in the structural coefficient by 0.66 and 0.55 points, respectively.

Обязательным условием качественного возделывания полевых культур является предпосевное выравнивание поверхности почвы и создание оптимальной её структуры. Недостаточно уделяется внимания аналитическим исследованиям по воздействию рабочих поверхностей почвообрабатывающих машин при предпосевной подготовке почвы под мелкосеменные культуры. Целью работы является исследование модели воздействия почвообрабатывающего катка, который в совокупности с основной обработкой позволит обеспечить соответствие агротехнических требований к посеву. Аналитические исследования выполнены с применением системного подхода, в результате предложена схема взаимодействия пруткового катка с почвой, рациональные параметры и режимы работы которого описаны математическими моделями. Формализация составленной математической модели дала возможность реализовать конструкцию ротационного катка с установленными параметрами и режимами его работы. В частности, разработана конструкция почвообрабатывающего катка-выравнивателя, представляющего собой пустотелый барабан, установленный на опорной раме крепления к трактору или культиватору. Вращение рабочего органа осуществляется посредством подшипников закрытого типа, установленных на оси. Пустотелый барабан составляется из дисков, имеющих дугообразную форму сечения с выпуклостью, на которых закреплены сетчатые элементы с возможностью их замены в зависимости от требуемых условий по коэффициенту структурности и выравненности. Во впадинах дисков пустотелого барабана закреплены подвижные планки. При выполнении лабораторно-полевого эксперимента отклик определялся приборами из полевой лаборатории Литвинова (ПЛЛ). Почвенные образцы брались с поверхностного горизонта глубиной 5.6 см. Опыты проводились на дерново-среднеподзолистых супесчаных и лёгкосуглинистых почвах в соответствии с апробированной методикой. Полевые испытания нового органа при предпосевной обработке супесчаных почв показали повышение количества агрономически ценной фракции на 4,0%, лёгкосуглинистых - на 4,2%, обеспечивая при этом увеличение коэффициента структурности на 0,66 и 0,55 единиц соответственно.

Introduction Technological processes associated with soil preparation for sowing small-seed crops, in particular, are considered the most important stage that affects the basic characteristics of physical, mechanical, and technological properties of the soil. High-quality performance of technological operations aimed at ensuring the required density, structural features, flatness, and ridgeness is possible only when the parameters and modes of the working tools are set in accordance with the initial state of the soil [1, 2]. Direct interaction of the working tools with the soil should be carried out taking into account agrotechnical requirements and biological characteristics of crops [3]. At the same time, one of the most important agrotechnical operations in pre-sow-ing tillage is soil compaction with rollers of various designs, as a rule, directly preceding the stage of interaction of the working tools of sowing machines - coulters and stub-blers - with the soil, evenly distributing the sowing material at the seedbed level of the working tools and contributing to increasing the contact area of seeds with soil particles. The rational use of working tools in the conditions of the prescribed characteristics of the main tillage results and setting reasonable design parameters of the soil compaction roller
provide for the required structure of the soil horizon, as well as the necessary leveling and compaction of the seedbed without increasing the erosion level [2, 4, 5]. It is an obvious fact that, despite a significant number of mass-produced domestic and foreign soil compaction tools, the development of a technological and constructive design of the working surface for structuring and leveling the soil profile still remains an urgent task.
Research purpose. Modeling the impact of the soil compaction roller on the soil surface to ensure compliance with agrotechnical requirements for sowing while performing the main soil cultivation.
Materials and methods. When developing a working tool, it is necessary to study a theoretical interaction model, taking into account the influence of a certain number of factors: the technological mode of operation, geometric parameters, shape and type of the working tool. The system approach made it possible to draw up a flowchart of the model technological operation of compacting and leveling soil layers with an appropriate structure, ensuring the necessary agrotechnical requirements for seedbed preparation for small-seed crops (Fig. 1) [1].
Figure 1. Flowchart of the "External environment - working tool - soil" model Рис. 1. Блок-схема модели «Внешняя среда - рабочий орган - почва»
External conditions under consideration include soil and climatic characteristics, performed technological operations, the level of the selected cultivation technology. The agricultural requirements should include the conditions for technological operations for seedbed preparation [3], taking into account the biological characteristics of cultivated crops.
When forming a set of technological requirements, it is necessary to make a leveled layer with the optimal structure of the surface soil horizon, in accordance with modern technologies and agricultural practices of seedbed preparation, by determining the sequence of technological processes,
taking into account soil and climatic conditions expressed by physicomechanical and technological properties of the soil (PMTP) [5, 6].
Design limitations include the type and shape of the working surface, as well as the basic geometric parameters (length, width, operating angle) and the working tool modes (speed, distributed load, vibration amplitude), taking account of optimal specific energy and metal consumption values [7].
The formalized flowchart in the form of mathematical models of the system based on subsystems is expressed by analytical regression dependences and databases obtained
taking into account the agrotechnical requirements for the degree of change in the soil horizon characteristics - combing, evenness, relative humidity, density, hardness, lumpiness, and structure coefficient.
The surface of the soil horizon as an object of treatment has the corresponding initial PMTP characteristics of the soil [8]. Consequently, the main task of the impact of the working tool of an optimal shape and geometric parameters, as well as operating modes, is to ensure a qualitative change in the characteristics of the initial soil conditions, in accordance with the agrotechnical requirements for seedbed preparation.
The analysis of the compiled flowchart of the interaction of the working tool with the soil indicated the need to identify the missing mathematical models in the form of theoretical or regression data.
The obtained regression dependences of the variation degree of agrophysical and technological properties of the soil on the influence of working tools in laboratory and field conditions [9] provides for algorithm-based designing and automated functioning of the working tool when preparing the seedbed for various sowing methods [10]. Further establishing of a database of missing indicators will allow for taking into account a wide range of initial soil properties, ranging from the restoration of fallow lands to old arable farmlands. The rationale for the optimal parameters and modes of the working tool for seedbed preparation is provided in the design algorithm.
Based on earlier laboratory and field studies conducted in 2017-2019 [10], it was established that the structure of the soil profile and soil characteristics should correspond to the following requirements (Fig. 2).
Figure 2. Required soil profile structure in the pre-sowing period Рис. 2. Требуемое строение почвенного профиля в предпосевной период
When implemented in seedbed preparation for small-seed crops, this method of designing and manufacturing the working tool brings both soil refining rollers and elements of other tillage machines into the production environment.
Results and discussion. The main task of seedbed preparation is to provide the necessary conditions for the growth and development of agricultural crops, which is determined by the favorable combination of physico-mechanical and technological properties of the soil. The most important characteristics of the surface soil horizon include density, structural features, flatness, and ridgeness. The analysis of scientific, technical and patent-licensed literature failed to offer an unambiguous solution on the surface shape of the working unit used for presowing tillage to form the necessary conditions for sowing small-seed field crops. The working tool designed by researchers of Tver State Agricultural Academy in collaboration with their colleagues from Russian Timiryazev State
Agrarian University taking into account the requirements for computer-aided design systems [11], includes a number of simple structural elements (Fig. 3).
The design of the soil compaction roller-leveler includes hollow drum 1 mounted on support frame 5 attached to a tractor or a cultivator. The working tool is rotated by means of closed-type bearings mounted on axle 2. Hollow drum 1 consists of disks having an arcuate cross-sectional shape with a convexity. The disks hold fixed mesh elements 3, which can be changed depending on the required conditions for the coefficient of structural properties and alignment. Movable straps 4 are fixed in the disk cavities of hollow drum 1.
The proposed design of a rotary soil leveler can be implemented in various tillage machines, including those used for primary and secondary tillage. The developed design provides for the improved quality of surface tillage due to the simultaneous deformation of large soil peds, compacting
and leveling the cultivated field surface horizon in accordance with agricultural requirements.
To study the influence of the factors of the leveling roller on the quality of the seedbed preparation before sowing, full-factor experiment FFE32 was carried out [12].
The results of experimental and reconnaissance studies in laboratory and field conditions have shown that the following factors have a significant impact on the degree of flatness -kinetic indicators: frame movement speed (2.3, 2.5, 2.7 m/s) and specific load (20, 40, 60 N/m), as well as geometric parameters: mesh size of the working surface, mesh pitch, the outer surface diameter of the soil compaction roller.
Having used the method of mathematical planning, we have determined two research factors (A and B). To increase
the accuracy of measurements, the number of test levels is considered equal to three, the frame speed with intervals of variation - 0.7 m/s and specific load - 20 N/m. The data are entered in Table 1.
Responses in the studied model (optimization parameters) are:
p - soil density, g/cm3;
R - ridgeness of the field surface, mm;
W - soil moisture, %;
K - soil lumpiness, %.
Currently, to determine the soil density, moisture, and other indicators characterizing agrophysical and technological properties, the most widely used is the method and a set of tools developed by N.A. Kachinsky [13].

When performing a laboratory field experiment, the response was determined by instruments from the Litvinov Field Laboratory (LFL). Soil samples were taken from the surface horizon to no more than a depth of 5.6 cm. Measurements were retaken three times. The obtained data were statistically processed using the methodology proposed by G. Khailis
and implemented in [14], as well as licensed software product Mathcad Prime - 3.0 to obtain a regression equation.

where p - soil density, g/cm3; P - specific load, N/m; S - impact degree of the working surface on the soil, %.
The adequacy of the compiled regression equation was verified with experimental data using the Fisher&s ratio test (F test). Based on the calculations, it was found that
F = 1.08 < 2.78 = F(0,05;4; 24),
soils by 4.0%, on light loamy soils by 4.2%, while increasing the structural coefficient by 0.66 and 0.55 points, respectively.
and proceeding from which, we can conclude that the model is adequate.
In a similar way, the data on alignment, ridgeness, and lumpiness were measured to construct response surfaces (Fig. 4).
The practical application of the experimental rotary working tool was studied as part of the re-equipment of the KBM-8NU block-modular cultivator, on which the original rotary rollers were replaced by experimental working tools. The experiment was carried out on sod-mid-podzolic sandy loam and light loamy soils in accordance with the approved method [15]. In the course of research, a change in the soil structure was determined (Tab. 2).
The operation analysis of the experimental working tool has revealed the predominance of its use on sod-podzolic soils relative to the rotor roller, used in the conventional layout scheme of the modular block cultivator. The use of a new tool has increased the amount of agronomically valuable fraction during seedbed preparation on sandy loam

В статье представлен результат анализа уровня производства картофеля на территории Российской Федерации. Отмечается, что по данным Росстата площади под картофелем в крестьянских (фермерских) хозяйствах и у индивидуальных предпринимателей за последние годы увеличились в 3,6 раза, а средняя урожайность в России выросла на 61,9% и составила 170,4 ц/га. Одним из сдерживающих факторов более интенсивного увеличения площадей возделывания картофеля является процесс послеуборочной обработки, на который приходится до 70% трудозатрат при ручной сортировке. Повсеместно используемые отечественные картофелесортировальные пункты КСП-15Б, КСП-15В, КСП-25 не способны обеспечить повреждение клубней картофеля в пределах агротехнических требований 1%. В Агроинженерном центре ВИМ была разработана и запатентована конструктивная схема автоматизированной линии для послеуборочной обработки клубней картофеля. Изложен принцип ее действия и технические характеристики. В программе Diagram Designer была построена принципиальная блок-схема подключения камеры высокого разрешения, позволяющей производить сканирование и съемку объектов с большей детализацией. Отмечено, что применение в хозяйствах населения автоматизированного устройства для послеуборочной обработки корнеплодов и картофеля позволит: снизить трудоёмкость работ до 85% за счёт сокращения количества обслуживающего персонала; повысить качество и точность сортирования клубней картофеля по размерному признаку в пределах 95.98%; идентифицировать материал на сортирующей поверхности с учётом внешних его повреждений и примесей перед закладкой картофеля на длительное хранение или его предпродажной подготовке, обеспечив при этом повреждения в пределах агротехнических требований.
