Economics of the Wet Fractionation System in Alfalfa Harvesting
评估了苜蓿收获中湿法分馏系统替代田间干燥的经济潜力，发现该系统仅对威斯康星州大型高产奶牛场有显著价值，对多数奶牛场经济潜力有限。
Abstract The Wet Fractionation System nearly eliminates the risk of weather damage and harvesting delays by substituting mechanical dewatering for field drying in the low moisture silage harvesting process. Bid prices for the wet fractionation are estimated based on stochastic dominance over conventional techniques. Results indicate that the wet fractionation system has significant potential only on large, highly productive Wisconsin dairy farms, but has little economic potential for the majority of dairy farms.
