Abstract

Timeliness is very important in large agricultural projects, which are characterized by large areas requiring different numbers and sizes of agricultural equipment. In order to choose the best equipment, and give the right management decisions. The intelligent manager must be aware of the optimum planting time, because the varying in the time of planting on sawing date leads to loss of productivity called (Timeliness) may reach about half of the crop.Determining the optimum time for planting is important to reduce the costs of declining yield due to timeliness and to obtain the highest yield from the farm.This research aims to cover these point machine sizes and operational available time affected the crop net return. Timeliness coefficients’ equation was adjusted for famous Egyptian crops, for maximum crop yield to avoid the early or late establishment crop yield losses.
