The following harvesting methods were compared to traditional hand harvesting: direct harvest using a conventional grain combine, cutting by double-blade cutter bar, cutting by bean-cutter blade, and pulling by a mechanical device. The combine harvester was the most economical and least1360time-consuming. Although straw loss was significantly higher with a combine harvester than with manual harvesting, farmers could either recover some of the straw by raking it or rent the fields to herders for animal grazing. Rolling the land reduces grain and straw losses. Good land preparation, mechanized sowing, and levelled fields without stones are essential conditions for the use of combine harvest
