The effect of grain moisture on grain loss in mechanized rice harvesting: a case study / Rohaida Mohammad

Harvesting is a process to collect the mature rice from the paddy either traditional or modern. Nowadays, the use of combine harvester already used in Malaysia because it operation into ones simultaneously. The key important to apply standard harvesting methods to enable in increase grain yields. Ho...
