Natural Resources Institute Finland (hereafter referred to as "Luke") request your tender for trial plot harvester. Please see the procurement documents for details.
Trial plot harvester is mainly used to harvest cereals and oil seeds. Typical plot size varies from 6 to 12 m2. Cutting width need to be 1,5 m. There need to be sub-sampling possibility and on-machine analysis of moisture, protein content and potentially also hectoliter weight of the yield (for cereals). Operating conditions can be quite challenging in Finland, namely the moisture content of the harvested yield can be high compared to many other regions. Also occasional wet field conditions set requirements for the harvester. Harvesters offered should comply with the field conditions. A preference of harvester performance under similar conditions is an advantage.
