A grass management system includes a prohibition determination circuit and a baler. The prohibition determination circuit is configured to determine a prohibition position. The baler is configured to acquire the prohibition position from the prohibition determination circuit, and eject a bale of grass at a position except for the prohibition position.

Merger control device (21) for controlling the operation of a merger, wherein the merger control device (21) is designed to receive a cornering steering angle from a steering angle sensor (22, 23) as an input variable, and wherein the merger control device (21) is designed, as a function of the received cornering steering angle, to generate as an output variable at least one adjusting signal for transverse conveying devices (18) of the merger configured as belt conveyors and/or at least one adjusting signal for receiving members (17) of the merger configured as pick-ups, to output said adjusting signal to the transverse conveying devices (18) and/or receiving members (17) and to adapt the operation thereof automatically as a function of the cornering steering angle.

A star-wheel rake including a frame, at least one front rake wheel and a rear drive wheel, coupled with each other so that the rotation of the rear drive wheel causes the rotation of the front rake wheel and connected to the frame so that the front rake wheel is lifted from the ground when the rear drive wheel is in contact with the ground.

The disclosure refers to an agricultural apparatus for forming from previously-cut agricultural crop, such as grass or the like, a windrow on a field, which may comprise: a frame, crop engaging elements supported on the frame and configured to form from previously-cut agricultural crop a windrow on a field, and a control unit configured to control operation of the crop engaging elements. The control unit is further configured to provide control signals to the crop engaging elements in such a way that, in a windrow forming mode of operation, the crop engaging elements are driven to engage with the previously-cut agricultural crop, and form from the previously-cut agricultural crop the windrow which may have a snake line form on the field. Further, a method for forming from previously-cut agricultural crop, such as grass or the like, a windrow on a field is also disclosed.

A machine for the harvesting of plants comprises an arm movable between work and transport configuration, a tool comprising lateral ends and being able to occupy a work position and another position, a connecting device via which the tool is connected to the arm and enabling a first movement of the tool relative to the arm, during which the lateral ends move vertically relative to the arm in the same vertical direction relative thereto, the connecting device can operate a second transverse and horizontal movement of the tool relative to the arm and making it possible to operate this second movement independently of the first movement. The connecting device comprises an arm articulated on the support arm about a first transverse and horizontal axis when the support arm is in the work configuration, and this arm can, by pivoting about the first axis, moved vertically relative to the support arm.

A side-delivery rake comprising a frame provided with at least a supporting arm to which a plurality of stellar wheels are associated. The supporting arm is pivoted to the frame so as to assume, by means of rotation around a pivoting element, at least a first working operating condition in which the stellar wheels carry out a gathering action, and a second transport operating condition, in which the stellar wheels are in a raised condition. Stop means are provided to determine the position of the supporting arms in the first operating condition. The stop means comprise an adjustment device which can be selectively associated with the frame in a finite plurality of predetermined discrete positions in order to define an adjustment of the position assumed by the supporting arm in the first operating condition.

A merger, with a supporting frame having a longitudinal member and crossmembers, with a wheeled chassis, with a drawbar engaging the supporting frame and via which the merger couples to a tractor, with pickup members for picking up crop, wherein one pickup member is accommodated on a first side of the longitudinal member and another pickup member is accommodated on a second side of the longitudinal member, in each case on a crossmember, with belt conveyors for conveying picked-up crop in a transverse conveying direction running transversely with respect to a longitudinal direction, wherein at least one belt conveyor is accommodated on a first side of the longitudinal member and another belt conveyor is accommodated on a second side of the longitudinal member, on the respective crossmember, wherein the drawbar pivots relative to the supporting frame for transferring the merger between a working position to headland or transport position.

A crop management system including one or more field sensors, each configured to detect one or more parameters of crop material at one or more locations, and a data processor in operable communication with the one or more sensors and configured to compile the information provided by the field sensors to determine the timing and location of at least one of the tedding process, the raking process, the baling process, or the chemical application process.
