In addition, the communication terminal 33A can associate a predetermined first storage member 55 with the water content and protein content of the grain stored in the first storage member 55. This association is performed using various information. For convenience of explanation, the combine 20 selected on the machine selection screen Q5 is selected combine, the machine identification information indicating the selected combine is selected identification information, and the predetermined first accommodating member 55 associated with the selected combine is described. The decision accommodating member and the accommodation identification information indicating the decision accommodating member are referred to as decision identification information.

The associating unit 58 refers to the second storage unit 36 of the communication terminal 33A and determines whether or not there is crop information on the grain harvested by the selected combine. For example, when the crop information corresponding to the selection identification information indicating the selected combine is present in the second storage unit 36, it is determined that the crop information of the grain harvested by the selected combine is present. Here, when the crop information is present, the associating unit 58 determines the items (field, harvest date, working time, worker, machine-related information, etc.) indicated in the agricultural record converted from the work plan, or the communication terminal in advance. The time information (year, month, day, hour, minute, etc.) included in 33A is used to extract crop information (water content at harvest, protein content at harvest) in the grain stored in the determined storage member. The associating unit 58 extracts, for example, the agricultural record having the same harvest date as the date when the combine 20 or the first housing member 55 is selected on the machine selection screen Q5 in the second storage unit 36, and corresponds to the extracted agricultural record. It is assumed that the grain contained in the determined containing member has the amount of water and the amount of protein to be contained. That is, the associating unit 58 associates the extracted crop information, that is, the water content at the time of harvest and the protein content at the time of harvest, with the accommodation identification information indicating the determined accommodation member.

In the above-described embodiment, the determined storage member (storage identification information) and the crop information are associated with each other by referring to the second storage unit 36 of the communication terminal 33A, but the management information storage unit 47 of the production management computer 33C is used. By referring, the accommodation identification information and the crop information may be associated with each other.
For example, the associating unit 58 uses the item (field, harvest date, work time, worker, machine information, etc.) and selection identification information shown in the agricultural record converted from the work plan as the search key, and the production management computer. 33C. Then, the associating unit 58 uses the search key to extract the crop information harvested by the selected combine from the management information storage unit 47. Then, the associating unit 58 associates the crop information extracted from the management information storage unit 47 with the determined accommodation member (accommodation identification information).

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 9, by searching the second storage unit 36 or the management information storage unit 47, the accommodation identification information and the crop information (harvest amount, water content at harvest, protein at harvest). Quantity) can be associated with. The associated crop information and accommodation identification information are stored together with the harvest management information in the harvest information storage unit 48 provided in the production management computer 33C.

In addition to the association between the crop information and the predetermined first housing member 55, the work information (agricultural record) may be associated. For example, the communication terminal 33A is connected to the production management computer 33C, and the agricultural record (eg, harvested field, worker name, etc.) corresponding to the crop information is extracted from the management information storage unit 47, and as shown in FIG. The extracted agricultural record, crop information, accommodation identification information, and consignment ID may be associated and stored in the harvest information storage unit 48. Further, the association between the accommodation identification information and the crop information is not limited to the method described above.

As described above, according to the production management system, it is possible to collectively manage, for example, a crop planting plan, a farm work plan, a farm work record (work information), crop harvest information (crop information), and the like.
Next, the crop management system will be described. The crop management system is mainly a system for managing crops (grains) after harvest. Specifically, the crop management system is a system that manages a processing facility 60 that processes agricultural crops (grains) after harvesting.

First, the processing equipment 60 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 11, the processing equipment 60 includes a dryer 61, a cooling tank 62, a huller 63, a preparation machine 64, and a weighing machine 65.
The dryer 61 is a device for drying grains. The dryer 61 is supplied with an input port 61A for inputting grain (paddy), a storage section 61B for temporarily storing the grain, and the grain stored in the storage section 61B is supplied to dry the supplied grain. It has a drying unit 61C, a circulation unit 61D, and a control unit (referred to as a first controller) 66A. The circulation unit 61D is a mechanism that conveys the grain put into the input port 61A to the storage unit 61B and returns the grain dried by the drying unit 61C to the storage unit 61B again.

The first controller 66A is a device that controls the dryer 61, and controls the drying temperature of the drying unit 61C and the circulation unit 61D so that the water content and protein content of the grain after the drying are set to preset target values. Control the circulation speed, etc.
Further, the first controller 66A can output operation information of the dryer 61 (referred to as drying operation information). For example, the first controller 66A uses, as the drying operation information, the operating state (being stuck, drying, stopped, etc.), the drying start time, the drying end time, the moisture content during drying (dry moisture content), the drying temperature, and the drying. It outputs the weight (dry weight) of the grain of.

Therefore, according to the dryer 61, the grain put into (inserted in) the input port 61A is temporarily stored in the storage section 61B and is supplied to the drying section 61C, whereby the grain can be dried in the drying section 61C. .. Moreover, by returning the grain dried in the drying unit 61C to the storage unit 61B, it is possible to dry the grain while circulating it.
The cooling tank 62 is a tank that cools the grain dried by the dryer 61 by storing it for a predetermined time. The huller 63 is a device for hulling grains that have been cooled in the cooling tank 62.

The preparation machine 64 is an apparatus for preparing grains (coarse brown rice or the like) which have been grain-hulled by the grain huller 63. In other words, the preparation machine 64 is an apparatus capable of preparing the grain dried by the dryer 61.
The preparation machine 64 is an apparatus for performing color inspection and color selection, and has a color selection machine 67 for color selection of grains. The preparation machine 64 also has an appearance quality meter 68 for performing color inspection.

The color selector 67 has a first hopper 67A, an image pickup section 67B, an injector 67C, and a control section (second controller) 66B. The first hopper 67A is a member that puts in the grain and drops the grain. The image capturing unit 67B is a device that captures an image of falling grains, and the injector 67C sorts defective grains based on the color selection result.
The second controller 66B is a device that controls the color selector 67, and determines whether or not the color of the grain is defective from the image of the grain captured by the image capturing unit 67B, for example. That is, the second controller 66B detects damaged rice or colored rice of stink bugs based on the color of the image of the captured grain, and determines that the corresponding grain is defective. When the second controller 66B determines that the grain is defective, the second controller 66B outputs a command to blow off the defective grain to the injector 67C.

Further, the second controller 66B can output operation information of the color selector 67 (referred to as first preparation operation information). For example, the second controller 66B outputs, as the first preparation operation information, the color selection result (color condition, good ratio, bad ratio), color start time, color end time, and the like.
Therefore, according to the color selector 67, the grain is picked up by inserting the grain into the first hopper 67A, and the color of the grain is selected based on the picked-up image, and the defective grain and the good grain are classified. Can be separated.

As for the percentage of defects, a scrap rice weighing machine is provided to measure the weight (discharge weight) of grains that have been determined to be defective after color selection. Then, for example, by dividing the weight (input weight) of the grain put into the color selector 67 from the discharged weight, the defective rate can be obtained. Then, the ratio of good products (yield) can be obtained from the ratio of defects. The method of obtaining the yield is not limited to this. The good ratio and the bad ratio may be obtained by the operation management unit 74 described later. In this case, it is desirable to adopt the particle size conversion amount described later as the input weight.

The appearance quality meter 68 is a device for inspecting the color of the grain before being put into the color selector 67 and for inspecting the color after being discharged from the color selector 67 (after the color selection). The appearance quality meter 68 includes a measuring unit 68A and a control unit (third controller) 66C. The measuring unit 68A is, for example, a device that measures the hue of a grain by capturing an image of the grain that is falling.
The third controller 66C is a device that controls the appearance quality meter 68, and performs processing such as obtaining a tint from a captured image. Further, the third controller 66C can output operation information of the appearance quality meter 68 (referred to as second preparation operation information). For example, the third controller 66C outputs the result of the color inspection, the measurement start time, the measurement end time, the measurement condition, and the like as the second preparation operation information.

Therefore, according to the appearance quality meter 68, the hue of the grain can be grasped in advance before being put into the color sorter 67, and the shade of the grain after color selection can be confirmed by the color sorter 67.
The weighing device 65 weighs the grain after the color sorter 67 or the like is performed, and includes a second hopper 65A for putting the grain, a pedestal 65B provided below the second hopper 65A, and a weighing unit 65C. And a control unit (fourth controller) 66D.

The second hopper 65A is a container for storing grains, and the pedestal 65B is a base on which the second storage member 69 for storing grains is placed. The second storage member 69 is a flexible container, a container, or the like. 65 C of weighing parts are apparatuses which measure the weight of the grain put into the 2nd accommodating member 69.
The fourth controller 66D is a device that controls the weighing device 65, and performs processing regarding the weighing result, the weighing start, the weighing end, and the like. Further, the fourth controller 66D can output operation information of the weighing device 65 (measurement operation information). For example, the fourth controller 66D outputs, as the weighing operation information, a measurement result (for example, shipping amount, number of bags packed, amount of bags packed), weighing start time, weighing end time, and the like.

Now, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 11, the crop management system includes a crop management computer 70 configured by a server or the like. The crop management computer 70, the first controller 66A, the second controller 66B, the third controller 66C, and the fourth controller 66D are connected to each other via a network such as a LAN. Through this network, the crop management computer 70 and each controller can send and receive data. For example, the crop management computer 70 stores the operation information output from each controller and outputs various data to each controller. Further, the crop management computer 70 can be connected to the production management computer 33C through an external network.

The crop management computer 70 includes a production information acquisition unit 71, an operation acquisition unit 72, an information output unit 73, and an operation management unit 74.
The production information acquisition unit 71 acquires data stored in the production management computer 33C. For example, when the predetermined grain is dried by the dryer 61, the production information acquisition unit 71 accesses the production management computer 33C and refers to the harvest information storage unit 54. Then, the production information acquisition unit 71 acquires the storage identification information of the first storage member 55, the crop information associated with the storage identification information, and the consignment ID. In addition to the crop information, the production information acquisition unit 71 may acquire information including the agricultural record (name of cropping plan, field, etc.).

The operation acquisition unit 72 includes electronic components, programs, and the like, and acquires various operation information from the first controller 66A, the second controller 66B, the third controller 66C, and the fourth controller 66D.
The information output unit 73 is composed of electronic components, programs, and the like, and outputs various information to the first controller 66A, the second controller 66B, the third controller 66C, and the fourth controller 66D.

The operation management unit 74 performs processing regarding the processing equipment 60. As shown in FIG. 12, the operation management unit displays the management screen Q8 on the display device connected to the crop management computer 70. The management screen Q8 is a screen for displaying information regarding the operation of the processing facility 60 and the like. The management screen Q8 has a cargo receiving display unit 75A, a dry display unit 75B, a cooling display unit 75C, a preparation display unit 75D, and a measuring instrument display unit 75E. The operation management unit 74 controls the display of the cargo reception display unit 75A, the dryness display unit 75B, the cooling display unit 75C, the preparation display unit 75D, and the weighing instrument display unit 75E.

The storage identification information and the crop information acquired by the production information acquisition unit 71 are displayed on the receipt display unit 75A. Specifically, the dry display portion 75B displays the name of the first storage member corresponding to the storage identification information and the crop information of the grain contained in the first storage member. Information including the agricultural record acquired by the production information acquisition unit 71 can also be displayed on the cargo reception display unit 75A.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 12, in the cargo receiving display portion 75A, the container name which is the name of the first storage member 55, the name of the planting plan, the harvest amount, the water content (water content at harvest), the protein content ( The amount of protein at the time of harvest), the field, and the recommended stakeout destination are displayed. The container name, the name of the cropping plan, the harvest amount, the water amount, the protein amount, and the field are information obtained from the production management computer 33C by the production information acquisition unit 71.

The operation management unit 74 obtains a recommended stakeout destination based on the drying operation information obtained from the first controller 66A, and displays the stakeout destination on the cargo reception display unit 75A. For example, it is assumed that, out of the four dryers, the third dryer (referred to as No. 3) is stopped, and the fourth dryer (referred to as No. 4) is being stretched. In this case, the operation management unit 74 recognizes that the No. 3 machine is stopped and the No. 4 machine is stuck, based on the drying operation information.

The operation management unit 74 has 7.2% of the protein of the grain stuck in the No. 3 machine, and the container 01, the container 03, the container 04 and the container 07 have substantially the same protein as the grain protein stuck in the No. 3 machine. Since the grains that it has are contained, the recommended destination for staking is Unit 3 for Container 01, Container 03, Container 04, and Container 07. Then, the operation management unit 74, which is the cargo reception display unit 75A, displays the recommended destination No. 3 in the column of the loading destination of the container 01, the container 03, the container 04, and the container 07.

Further, the operation management unit 74 recommends that the container No. 4 and container 05 in which the grain containing the protein is contained in the container No. 4 and the container No. 05 be attached to the unit No. 4 because the protein contained in the grain stuck to the No. 4 is 6.3%. And Then, the operation management unit 74 is the cargo reception display unit 75A, and displays the recommended destination No. 4 in the column of the destination of the container 02 and the container 05. Note that the operation management unit 74 does not set the recommended sticking destination because the first unit is drying and the second unit is waiting for discharge.

Therefore, since the recommended dryer 61 is sought based on the amount of protein, grains having a relatively close amount of protein can be stuck in the dryer.
As shown in FIG. 12, a decision button 78 for deciding the stake-in is displayed at the stake-in destination of the consignment display section 75A. When this decision button 78 is selected, the operation management unit 74 determines that the container corresponding to the decision button 78 is stuck to the recommended destination, the harvest amount of the container is “swell amount”, and the moisture amount at harvest is “ Set the water content at the time of stake (water content at the stake) and the protein content at the time of harvest to the protein content at the stake (protein content at the stake).

The operation management unit 74 is based on the set amount of swelling, the amount of swelling water set and the amount of swelling protein set, the amount of stake already in the dryer 61, the amount of swelling water and the amount of swelling protein. Determine the total amount of infusion, the amount of infused water, and the amount of infused protein at the time of suspension or during inflation.
The information output unit 73 outputs the total amount of feed, the amount of feed water and the amount of feed protein, the number of the dryer, and the container name (accommodation identification information) to the first controller 66A. The first controller 66A displays the total amount of feed, the amount of feed water and the amount of feed protein, the number of the dryer, and the container name on the display device provided in the dryer 61.

The status of the dryer 61 and the like are displayed on the dry display portion 75B. Specifically, the dry display portion 75B shows the number of the dryer 61, the planting plan, the operating state (during sticking, drying, stopping, etc.), and the capacity that can be stuck to the dryer 61. The remaining capacity (possible amount), the total amount of moisture, the amount of moisture (moisture amount of moisture contained, the amount of dried moisture), the amount of protein (the amount of incorporated protein, amount of dried protein), and the discharge destination are displayed. The operation state and the amount of dried water are the drying operation information obtained by the operation acquisition unit 72 from the first controller 66A. The planting plan is information acquired by the production information acquisition unit 71. The total amount of charge, the remaining capacity, and the discharge destination are information shown based on the calculation result by the operation management unit 74. In addition, in this embodiment, the amount of swelling protein is treated as the amount of protein in the grain being dried (the amount of dried protein).

The calculation of the remaining capacity by the operation management unit 74 will be described.
The operation management unit 74 obtains the remaining capacity by subtracting the total amount of sticking from the maximum amount of sticking of the dryer 61 corresponding to the dryer number. The maximum stake amount of each dryer 61 is stored in advance in the crop management computer 70. The operation management unit 74 also causes the dry display unit 75B to display the vertical axis of the graph in the area for displaying the remaining capacity. Then, the operation management unit 74 displays the maximum amount of the dryer 61 corresponding to the dryer number at the upper end of the vertical axis, zero at the lower end of the vertical axis, and the remaining capacity along the vertical axis. indicate.

Therefore, the operation management unit 74 can obtain the amount of stakeable (remaining amount) that can be squeezed into the drier based on the harvest amount of grain, the amount of stake into the drier, and the maximum amount of squeezing into the drier. it can. Further, since the possible amount of stake and the maximum amount of stake are displayed, the operator can easily determine whether or not the grain can be stake in the dryer. In particular, when there are a plurality of dryers 61, it is possible to properly determine the order in which the grains are to be loaded while observing the amount that can be loaded.

The operation management unit 74 obtains the discharge destination to be discharged to the cooling tank 62 based on the protein amount of the grain stored in the cooling tank 62, and displays the discharge destination on the dry display unit 75B. For example, assume that there are four cooling tanks 62. Here, the amount of protein in the grain in the second cooling tank 62 (the amount of cooling protein) is 7.3%, and the amount of protein in the grain in the No. 2 dryer 61 (dry protein) When the amount) is 7.3%, the operation management unit 74 sets the second cooling tank 62 as the discharge destination because the cooling protein amount and the dry protein amount are the same. The protein of the grain contained in the cooling tank 62 is obtained based on the crop information discharged from the dryer 61 to the cooling tank 62.

A determination button 78 for determining the discharge destination is displayed at the discharge destination of the dry display portion 75B. When this decision button 78 is selected, the operation management unit 74 determines that the grain has been discharged from the dryer 61 corresponding to the decision button 78 to the cooling tank 62 of the discharge destination. Then, the operation management unit 74 obtains the weight of the dried grain (the discharge amount discharged to the cooling tank 62), that is, the dry conversion amount, based on the total amount of sticking, the amount of sticking water, and the amount of dry water. .. For example, the dry amount (kg) = total amount of feed (kg)-(water content [%]-water content [%] after completion of drying) x total amount [kg]) Calculate the converted amount.

Therefore, the weight (converted amount) of the dried grain can be calculated based on the amount of water to be incorporated and the amount of dried water (the amount of water after drying). That is, the grain to be put into the cooling tank 62 can be grasped without providing a weight scale or the like on the inlet side of the cooling tank 62. Moreover, it is possible to determine the amount of grain input to the huller 63 and the amount of input grain to the preparation machine 64 using the converted amount.

Further, the operation management unit 74 sets the moisture content at the end of drying (dry moisture content) as the moisture content of the grain put in the cooling tank 62 (cooling moisture content), and sets the protein content at the completion of drying to the cooling tank 62. The amount of protein in the added grain (the amount of protein allowed to cool) is used.
The condition of the cooling tank 62 is displayed on the cooling display unit 75C. Specifically, the cooling display part 75C displays the drying control information, the cropping plan, the dry conversion amount, the cooling water content, the cooling protein amount, and the like as the status of the cooling tank 62. In addition, the discharge destination is displayed on the cooling display portion 75C.

The preparation display section 75D displays the status of the preparation machine 64 and the like. Specifically, the preparation display section 75D displays the status of the preparation machine 64 as dry management information, cropping plan, grain conversion amount, color selection machine number, operating status (color selection, stoppage, etc.), and color selection. The result is displayed. The number of the color selector, the operating state, and the color selection result are the first preparation operating information obtained by the operation acquisition unit 72 from the second controller 66B. Further, the preparation display portion 75D displays the discharge destination. The dry conversion amount is information calculated by the operation management unit 74.

The operation management unit 74 obtains a particle size conversion amount that can be input to the color selector 67, based on the dry conversion amount. The operation management unit 74 obtains the sizing equivalent amount based on, for example, “equivalent sizing amount (kg)=equivalent dry amount (kg)×corresponding weight of rice husks to the weight of crude brown rice (rice husk removal rate) (%)”. Since the weight of rice husks is about 15% with respect to the weight of crude brown rice, the rice husk removal rate is 0.85. The rice husk removal rate is not limited to the above-mentioned value.

Therefore, it is possible to grasp in advance the weight of grain that can be put into the brewing machine 64 that is prepared after the processing of the grain hulling machine 63 (the grain size conversion amount). That is, it is possible to grasp the grain to be put into the preparation machine 64 without providing a scale or the like on the entrance side of the preparation machine 64.
The status of the weighing machine 65 and the like are displayed on the weighing machine display portion 75E. The weighing instrument display section 75E displays the status of the weighing instrument 65 such as drying management information, cropping plan, total bagging amount, shipping result (shipping amount, bagging number, bagging amount) and the like. The shipping result (shipping amount, bagging number, bagging amount) is the weighing operation information obtained by the operation acquisition unit 72 from the fourth controller 66D.

As described above, the crop management computer 70 obtains operation information (drying operation information, first preparation operation information, second preparation operation information, weighing operation information) obtained from each controller and information obtained from the production management computer 33C (harvest amount, The amount of water at harvest, the amount of protein at harvest, and the cropping plan) can be used to manage the operation of the processing equipment 60 and the like.
When performing each process in the processing facility 60, management information is assigned corresponding to each process. Specifically, in the drying process in the dryer 61, management information (drying management information) is assigned to each operation of the dryer 61. Further, in the preparation process by the preparation machine 64, management information (preparation management information) is assigned for each operation of the preparation machine 64, and in the measurement processing by the measuring instrument 65, management information (operation by the operation of the measuring instrument 65) ( Measurement management information) is assigned.

The drying management information, the preparation management information, and the measurement management information are represented by, for example, a lot number or an ID. The crop management computer 70 allocates the drying management information, the preparation management information, and the measurement management information, and outputs the lot number or ID allocated to each controller.
The crop management computer 70 has an integrated associating unit 80. The integrated association unit 80 associates the operation information obtained from each controller, the result calculated by the operation management unit 74, the information obtained by the production information acquisition unit 71, and the like. The integrated associating unit 80 is composed of electronic components, programs and the like.

As shown in FIG. 13, the integrated associating unit 80 uses the dry operation information (dry water amount, dry protein amount, dry start time, dry end time, dry weight) obtained from the first controller 66A, and the operation management unit 74. Drying management information is associated with drying information such as the calculation result (water content, protein content) and information (planting plan) obtained by the production information acquisition unit 71.
Specifically, the crop management computer 70 automatically issues the lot number as the drying management information before starting the operation of the dryer 61. Then, for example, when the number of the dryer is determined by the determination button 78 of the cargo reception display section 75A and the first controller 66A obtains that the dryer 61 corresponding to the number has started to operate, the integrated association section 80 The link between the issued lot number and the drying information in the dryer 61 that has decided to dry is determined.

Then, after the start of drying by the dryer 61, the linking and association of the rod number with the drying information obtained by the end of drying is continued. When the operation of the dryer 61 is completed, the associated drying information and drying management information are stored in the information storage unit 81 provided in the crop management computer 70. The associated drying information and drying management information are transmitted from the crop management computer 70 to the first controller 66A and displayed on the display device of the dryer 61.

Therefore, since the drying management information and the drying information including the drying operation information are associated with each other, it is possible to manage the operation of the dryer 61 in the operation unit (for each lot number) of the drying management information. For example, the amount of dry water, the amount of dry protein, the dry start time, the dry end time, and the dry weight can be grasped in operation units, and these can be reflected in the adjusting machine 64 and the weighing machine 65 located downstream. ..

Further, as shown in FIG. 14, the integrated associating unit 80 has the first preparation operation information (operation state, color selection result, color selection start time, color selection end time) obtained from the second controller 66B, operation management unit. The preparation information related to the preparation machine 64, such as the result (dry conversion amount) calculated in 74, is associated with the preparation management information.
Specifically, the crop management computer 70 automatically issues the lot number as the preparation management information before the operation of the preparation machine 64 (color selector 67) is started. For example, if the second controller 66B obtains from the second controller 66B that the color selector number has been determined by the determination button 78 shown on the cooling display 75C and the color selector 67 corresponding to the number has been started, The associating unit 80 determines the association between the issued lot number and the preparation information in the color selector 67 that has determined the color selection. Then, after the color selection by the color selector 67 is started, the preparation information obtained by the end of the color selection and the rod number are linked and associated with each other. When the operation of the color selector 67 is completed, the associated preparation information and preparation management information are stored in the information storage unit 81. The associated preparation information and preparation management information are transmitted from the crop management computer 70 to the second controller 66B and displayed on the display device of the preparation machine 64 (color selector 67).

Therefore, since the preparation management information and the preparation information including the preparation operation information are associated with each other, the operation of the preparation machine 64 can be managed in the operation unit of the preparation management information. For example, the operating state, the color selection result, the color selection start time, the color selection end time, and the like can be grasped for each operation unit, and these can be reflected on the weighing device 65 located on the downstream side or the dryer located on the upstream side. You can feed back to 61 etc.

Further, as shown in FIG. 15, the integration association unit 80 has the weighing operation information (shipping amount, bagging number, bagging amount, weighing start time, weighing end time) and weighing management information obtained from the fourth controller 66D. To associate.
Specifically, the crop management computer 70 automatically issues the lot number as the preparation management information before starting the operation by the weighing device 65. Then, for example, when the crop management computer 70 obtains the operation information indicating that the operation has started from the third controller 66C after the decision button 78 shown in the weighing machine display unit 75E is selected, the integrated association unit 80 is issued. The link between the lot number and the weighing information is determined. After the start of weighing by the weighing machine, the weighing information obtained until the end of weighing and the rod number are linked and associated. When the operation of the weighing device 65 is completed, the associated weighing information and weighing management information are stored in the information storage unit 81. The associated preparation information and preparation management information are transmitted from the crop management computer 70 to the fourth controller 66D and displayed on the display device of the weighing machine 65.

Therefore, since the measurement management information and the preparation information including the measurement operation information are associated with each other, the operation of the weighing instrument 65 can be managed in the operation unit of the measurement management information. For example, shipping volume,
The number of bags, the amount of bags, the measurement start time, and the measurement end time can be grasped, and these can be fed back to the preparation machine 64 located upstream, the dryer 61 located upstream, and the like.
By the way, in the processing equipment 60, the processing of the grain is executed in the order of the dryer 61, the preparation machine 64 (for example, the color selector 67), and the weighing machine 65.

The harvest management information (consignment ID) associated with the crop information of the existing grain is held.

Then, when the dry management information (lot number) and the dry information are linked by the integrated association unit 80, separately from the integrated association unit 80, the comprehensive association unit 83 holds the harvest management information held in advance. The (consignment ID), the drying management information (lot number), and the drying information are associated with each other.
Further, the comprehensive association unit 83 is connected to the harvest information storage unit 48, and uses the harvest management information (consignment ID) held therein as a search key to store work information and crop information including the agricultural record associated with the consignment ID. Extract. Then, as shown in FIG. 18, the overall associating unit 83 associates the work information including the extracted agricultural record, the crop information, and the harvest management information (consignment ID) with the drying management information and the drying information. Then, the associated dryness management information, dryness information, work information, crop information, and harvest management information are stored in the comprehensive information storage unit 84 provided in the crop management computer 70. The comprehensive associating unit 83 may associate the harvest management information and the dryness management information and store only this association in the comprehensive information storage unit 84.

Therefore, since the drying operation information, the work information, and the crop information are associated with each operation of the dryer 61, the result of the drying by the dryer 61, the result of the agricultural work, and the state of the crop of the crop at the time of harvesting are associated with each other. Can be compared. For example, the amount of dry water and the amount of dry protein relative to the amount of water and the amount of protein at the time of harvest can be grasped.
The work information associated by the comprehensive association unit 83 is the place of plowing, the date of plowing, the place of fertilization, the date of fertilization, the fertilizer name, the amount of fertilizer, the place of pesticide application, the date of pesticide application, the name of the pesticide, the amount of pesticide application, and the harvest. Location, worker name, agricultural machine, or other information. It is desirable that at least the harvest location is included as work information. The crop information associated by the comprehensive associating unit 83 may be any of the crop name, harvest amount, water content at harvest, protein content at harvest, or other information.

Now, the comprehensive associating unit 83 also associates the preparation information, the preparation management information, the work information, and the crop information. For example, when associating the dryness management information with the preparation management information, the comprehensive associating unit 83 takes over the work information and the crop information previously associated with the dryness management information, and the inherited work information and the crop information are also used as the preparation management information. Associate. Then, the associated preparation information, preparation management information, work information, and crop information are stored in the comprehensive information storage unit 84.

Therefore, since the preparation operation information, the work information, and the crop information are associated with each operation of the preparation machine 64, the result of the color selection by the preparation machine 64, the result of the agricultural work, and the crop condition of the crop at the time of harvesting Can be compared with.

Can be compared. For example, it is possible to grasp the measurement results (shipment amount, bagging number, bagging amount) for the field, fertilizer application amount, and pesticide application amount.
In the above-described agricultural management system, various information of each processing of the processing equipment 60 and the production management information obtained from the production management computer 33C can be associated with each other, so that the production of agricultural products can be reviewed and improved by comparing them. It can be carried out. That is, it is possible to trace back to the state of the farm work when the farm crop was cultivated and the state of the crop at the time of harvest. Further, the processing equipment can be set with reference to the work information and the crop information obtained when the processing equipment 60 is in operation. Every time the processing equipment is operated, it is possible to trace back to the farm work when the crop was cultivated and the state of the crop at the time of harvest.

By the way, in the processing equipment 60, before performing the color selection of the grain in the color selector 67 or after performing the color selection of the grain in the color selector 67, the appearance quality meter 68 performs the color inspection. Specifically, a grain sample is collected before the grain is put into the color selector 67, and a color inspection is performed by the appearance quality meter 68.

That is, the grade association unit 88 performs a process of associating the grade with the color selection result (first adjustment operation information), the post-inspection result, and the preparation management information that are associated in advance. Then, the grade, the post-inspection result, the color selection result, and the preparation management information are stored in the quality management storage unit 85.

Therefore, the color result and the color selection result for the grade can be grasped. Therefore, if the color result is obtained in advance before the color selection by the color selector 67, the color selection can be performed in consideration of which grade from the color result. For example, since the worker has obtained the color result in advance, he/she can grasp the condition of the grain (brown rice) before color selection. Here, it is possible to compare the grade and the color result obtained in advance with the color result obtained in advance and perform a simulation before processing with the sorter 67 as to which grade the current grain is to be shipped. it can. For example, before the sorting by the sorter 67, it is possible to perform the grade control such that the shipping amount is decreased but the shipping amount is decreased, or the shipping amount is decreased but the grade is increased.

As described above, the preparation management information is associated with the production management information (work information, crop information) by the comprehensive associating unit 83. Therefore, the grade associating unit 88 refers to the comprehensive information storage unit 84 and uses the preparation management information as a search key to extract the production management information (work information, crop information) associated with the preparation management information. The grade associating unit 88 associates the extracted production management information (work information, crop information) with the previously associated grade, post-inspection result, and color selection result. In particular, it is preferable that the grade associating unit 88 extracts, from the production management information, the agricultural record relating to the field where the harvest is performed and the agricultural work, and associates the agricultural record and the agricultural record, the grade, the color selection result, and the color result. The grade, post-inspection result, color selection result, preparation management information, field and agricultural record are stored in the quality management storage unit 85.

Therefore, the grade, the color result, and the color selection result for the field can be grasped, and it is possible to confirm how many grades of rice (brown rice) have been obtained in the predetermined field. In addition, it is possible to grasp the grade, color result and color selection result for the field and agricultural performance, and to confirm what kind of farm and what grade of rice (brown rice) was obtained in what field. it can.
