Abstract
Comprehensive mechanization of experimental plant breeding work can significantly increase the volume of high quality seeds and increase the efficiency of all breeding activities. The harvesting of plants from the plots of the first stage is carried out manually by cutting the plants with a sickle, scissors or pulling them together with the root system. The number of samples requiring analysis per season is estimated at many thousands, for example, only in breeding nurseries up to 15–20 thousand plants are prepared for each crop. This is the most time consuming operation in breeding. An attempt to mechanize the harvesting of homogeneous land plots at 1–2 stages, both in Russia and abroad, has not yet yielded results effective enough for mass use. In this regard, in 2011, VIM has begun the development of a new domestic technical device for harvesting cereal crops at the 1–2 stage of breeding work in order to reduce the cost of performing the technological process in primary seed production using parts of the mower manufactured by GARDENA (Germany). Structural flaws were eliminated and additional elements were introduced to improve the work, such as tabletop for cut plant stems. Harvesting machines of this type are quite in demand, but, unfortunately, their use is not yet widespread enough, which does not allow setting up their flow production.
