VARGAS-HIDALGO, Jiorqui; GARCIA DE LA FIGAL-COSTALES, Armando E.  e  MOREJON-MESA, Yanoy. Comparison of Tractor Belarus 510 and Animal Traction in Beans Cultivation. Rev Cie Téc Agr [online]. 2017, vol.26, n.2, pp. 12-22. ISSN 2071-0054.

To evaluate the operating parameters and economic and energy costs of two sets: tractor BELARUS 510- cultivator “Camajuaní” and animal traction (by oxen)-cultivator “Criollo” in beans cultivation on Ferralitic Red soil, belonging to Farmhouse “Las Papas”, National Institute of Agricultural Sciences (INCA), technological times, depth, width and working speed and fuel consumption were measured to both technologies. Using NC: 34-37 and NC: 34-38 and the software TECEXP and CEE, operating parameters, economic and energy costs for each set were calculated. As a main result it was determined that the useful operating time of tractor-cultivator is 6% higher than animal traction. Comparing sets, it was obtained that ha/h productivity, increases 4.23 times; the lowest economic cost transferred corresponds to the small power tractor with a value of 10.01 peso/ha, saving 34% and 48% compared to Belarus 510 and animal traction, respectively. The lower energy cost transferred also corresponds to the small power tractor with a value of 194.33 MJ / ha, saving 49% and 58%, compared to Belarus 510 and oxen animal traction, respectively
