Abstract
In method and a device for determining the compression properties of crop material in an agricultural working machine, a compressing device is capable of being filled with a material sample during the working process, the compression of the material sample is determined based on at least one defined precompression of the material sample carried out by the compressing device, and at least one compressing element assigned to the compressing device applies a load on the material sample and moves relative to it, to provide an improved compression effect in crop material.
