Abstract
This study aimed at investigating the effect of grain moisture content on soybean threshing performance. The result would be applied in developing a soybean combine harvester to be installed with a small tractor. The axial-flow soybean threshing unit is composed of a rotor of 0.48 mm diameter and 0.70 m length, peg tooth clearance (PC) of 41.4 mm, concave clearance (CC) of 20 mm, guide vane inclination (GI) of 80°, rotor speed (RS) of 10 m/s and feed rate (FR) of 150 kg/h. The investigated factors included grain moisture content (MC). The completely randomized design (CRD) experiment was planned by setting the soybean moisture contents at three levels, i.e., 14.94, 23.55 and 36.04%wb. The experiment demonstrated that the MC significantly affected the threshing efficiency, total loss, and percentage of breakage. The axial-flow soybean threshing unit is recommended for soybean moisture content of not over 15%wb.
