Process: Cut/Remove Biomass by Fraction (Flags) (P 43)

This process cuts the specified standing biomass (crop and residue if present) to a fraction of the crop height. This process is also a harvest process if components of the cut material are removed from the field as specified by the removal parameter values. It replaces the P 33 process and includes additional flags that determine whether the harvested material and crop maturity warnings get reported as well as whether this process's results are used during a yield calibration run. Its parameters are:

Report Harvest
Specifies whether a harvest yeild is reported:
• 0: No Report
• 1: Report


Use Harvest in Calibration
Specifies whether a harvest is used in a yield calibration run.
• 0: Do Not Use
• 1: Use for Calibration


Harvest Units
Specifies what harvest units are used:
• 0: Use Units in Crop Record
• 1: Use mass/area Units


Crop Maturity Warnings
Specifies whether crop maturity warnings are displayed:
• 0: No Warnings
• 1: Warnings


Plant Height Removed
Fraction of plant height cut.

Cut Yield Removed
Fraction of cut yield biomass removed, remaining cut goes flat.

Cut Plant Removed
Fraction of plant (crop) cut biomass removed, remaining cut material goes to flat.

Cut Standing Residue Removed
Fraction of residue cut biomass removed, remaining cut material goes to flat.
