Effects of rotary mower blade cutting angles on the pulverization of sweet potato vine

A rotary mower with five different blade cutting angles was tested at five different cutting speeds to determine the resultant pulverized percentage of sweet potato vine (< 28 mm) and the power consumed (Joule). The best results for effects of interaction between blade angles and mower speeds was...
