Properly built logistics of sugar beet harvesting is one of the important parts of farmer's successful work. LS 16 trailer loader is a simple and effective solution to optimize this process. It completely eliminates the machinery downtime, which is possible when the beets are transported by trucks. The loader follows the harvester when it is being filled and takes root crops. When trucks arrive, it takes the loader only 1.5 minutes to transfer the contents of the trailer into the body of the truck. Otherwise, it forms a clamp on the edge of the field. Non-stop transfer of root crops from the hopper of the harvester to the trailer loader increases productivity significantly.
Another important advantage of LS 16 trailer loader in comparison with a truck is the extent of impact on soil. High pressure brought by the truck when it enters the field affects negatively on the subsequent yield of cultivated crops. Unlike the specific pressure of a tractor or a harvester that has almost no impact thanks to wide-section tires, the pressure of a truck is many times higher than the permissible level. In rainy weather, skidding trucks break the track and destroy stubble integrity, which is the most important element of water retention. Besides, after this fields require levelling with additional cultivation or harrowing.
