Key Points

This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a mowing robot in shredding fallen pear leaves to enhance decomposition.
Conducted in pear orchards comparing three zones: mowing robot zone, conventional mower zone, and untreated zone.
Evaluated leaf dry weight and area across six comparisons between the zones.
Assessed two cutting heights of 40 mm and 60 mm for the mowing robot.
Leaf dry weight in the mowing robot zone and conventional zone was significantly lighter than the untreated zone, with significant differences noted in three comparisons.
When the conventional zone's tasks were thorough, it was about three times heavier than the mowing robot zone, but comparable when tasks were simplified.
No significant differences were observed in leaf dry weight and area between 40 mm and 60 mm heights of the mowing robot.

Compares leaf shredding effectiveness of mowing robot versus conventional methods, indicating efficiency benefits.
