A vehicle to discharge root crop to define a root crop heap, includes a drive device to drive the vehicle, a crop bunker to contain the crop to be discharged, a discharge device to discharge the root crop from the crop bunker. The vehicle further includes a control device to control the discharge device to create the root crop heap with defined heap parameters, where the heap parameters include one or more of: a defined heap location, a defined heap width, and a defined heap orientation, and the heap is the root crop heap on a ground of a field.

Vehicle for discharging crop and corresponding use

A harvesting device includes a support defining an uprooting position of the harvesting device, and an uprooting section comprising at least two uprooting units, each uprooting unit having at least one uprooting element, each uprooting unit being adapted to uproot root crop. At least one of the uprooting units is mobile with respect to the support between an active position and an inactive position, the active position being a position in which the uprooting unit is able to uproot beet crop in a field having a field surface when the harvesting device is in the uprooting position, the inactive position being a position in which the uprooting unit is unable to uproot beet crop in the field when the harvesting device is in the uprooting position.

Harvesting device, corresponding machine and method

This root crop harvesting machine () is adapted to harvest root crop (), in particular beet crop, the root crop harvesting machine comprising an uprooting device () adapted to uproot the root crop. The root crop harvesting machine comprises an applicator () device adapted to apply an agent () to the root crop.

Beet crop harvesting machine, corresponding method and use

Machine for harvesting roots planted in the ground and aligned in rows, comprising a unit () for horizontally cutting the head of the roots, said unit having a means for automatically adjusting the level of its cutting blade depending on the level of this head, and being followed by a harvesting unit () that hollows out the earth beneath the roots at a relative height beneath the cutting level, characterized in that it has a means for detecting the height of the top of the root e, and a means for adjusting the relative height of the harvesting unit () with respect to the cutting level, depending on this height.
