Resumo

Sugarcane culture directed to sugar mills is of great economic and social importance in Brazil. Harvesters are the most important equipment in the sugarcane mechanized harvesting system, since the production process in sugar mills depends on machine operating performance, which is directly related to field efficiency. Therefore, efficiency is relevant because it involves the service time and operational efficiency of the harvester and it takes place when the operation is implemented. The current study aims to analyze the times and efficiencys in sugarcane mechanized harvesting. To current study took under consideration primary data on the mechanized harvesting of a sugarcane plant, which were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The reduction in time lost increases the time worked. Operational and use efficiency have strong impact on the mechanized harvesting performance.
