ABSTRACT
This paper presents a simulation model of the farm tractor with a trailer. The aim of the study was the analysis of the effect of side wind gusts on agricultural trailer stability. Forces on roadway surface friction was taken into account. In the calculations different and varied weather conditions were assumed. Transport processes in agriculture affects the efficient functioning of farms. Results for various simulated weather conditions were presented. The results of the analysis will allow the rationalization of operational processes of agricultural machinery, which can improve the effectiveness of farm management.
