Abstract
Information on the time study of mechanical cotton picking is
useful to farm managers, researchers, and cotton harvesting machinery
designers. Using operational analysis, time study information can be
used to improve the field performance of cotton picking machines, and
yield clues for machine design changes.
This report presents a time study of mechanical cotton picking
made during the 1974 harvest season. The time study information was
used to compute the machine field capacitive performance. Factors
affecting the performance are discussed. A method for mechanizing the
collection of the time study information was designed for installation
and testing
