ABSTRACT This study aimed to develop artificial neural networks for the estimation of tractor fuel consumption during soil preparation, according to the adopted system. The multilayer perceptron network was chosen. As input data: the soil mechanical penetration resistance, the mobilized area by implements, the working gear and the tractor engine speed. The number of layers and neurons varied to form different architectures. The adjustment was verified based on various statistical criteria. The values estimated by the networks did not differ significantly from those obtained experimentally. The conclusion was that the networks showed adequate reliability and accuracy to predicting the fuel consumption in each tillage system, in function of the input data and this can be a useful tool for planning and management of agricultural operations.
