T G2 was added into file in front of the flattening (P24), burial (P25), and resurfacing (P26) factors because the area affected is less than 1.0 and
T the RUSLE values were normalized to 1.0.  This change will imulate the correct residue changes based on the method set forth in RUSLE.
T RUSLE's factors have been redused to based on the area affected.
T The stalk fall rate factor (P34) was moved ahead of the new (G2) factor to set the fall rate to the less than 1.0 area affected.  8/7/07 MAS

T ARS record - filename is:  Harvest Corn - silage (silage cutter).oprn
T This operation record is designed to represent a harvesting operation, e.g., a "silage cutter",
T that remove all of the above ground crop biomass above a specified cutting height.
T Examples would be cutting corn for silage and alfalfa for hay.
T This harvesting operation record removes all crop plant material above the specified cut height.
T The remaining above ground crop material below the specified cut height becomes standing residue
T for annual crops.  Perennial crops like alfalfa will automatically regrow.
T The default "Kill or Defoliate Growing Crop" parameter is set to kill annual crops but to allow
T regrowth of perennial crops.  Thus the default value is acceptable for perennial crops
T like alfalfa and most annual crops like corn harvested for silage.  There are situations where
T one might want to change this parameter value for specific types of crops and conditions.
T See additional info below in the "Detailed info regarding this operation record" section.
T No standing stalks (crop or residue) are flattened.  This record is assuming a row crop
T silage harvester, where the tires are tracking in between the rows.
T 200x	Created - Fred Fox
T Oct 31, 2005	Updated notes - Larry Wagner
T Detailed info regarding this operation record:
T This operation template has the "Kill or Defoliate Growing Crop" process parameter defaulting to
T "Annual crop killed, perennial crop regrows" value.  Thus the default value is acceptable for use
T with perennial crops like alfalfa and annual crops like corn harvested for silage.  However, if one
T intends to harvest (green chop) an annual crop that has the capacity to regrow after such a cutting,
T then one needs to change the value to "No crop killed" to allow the crop to regrow afterwards.
T Due to the way WEPS reports crop yields, the crop record selected for this type of harvesting
T operation should specify the "yield" component of the crop to be the "above ground stems, leaves
T and reproductive elements of  the plant".  This will ensure proper reporting of harvested yields
T by WEPS.  However, using a crop record that does not specify the "yield" component in this manner
T will not affect the erosion estimate or change any other simulation run results, except to incorrectly
T report the true "yield" component being removed from the field.  An example of a crop that may be
T harvested for two different types of "yield" components is corn.  There are corn crop records defined
T that specify the yield as the reproductive element (grain) and others that are defined for harvesting
T the crop as silage.

T ARS record - filename is:  Harvest Wheat - grain (combine cutterbar header).oprn
T This operation record is designed to represent actual field harvesting operation
T of removing the grain from small grain crops with a cutterbar head on a combine.
T This harvesting operation record removes all the reproductive component of a crop above the
T cutting height.  Typically this is specified as the "yield" component in the crop record.
T The non-harvested crop plant material above the specified cut height becomes flat residue.
T The remaining above ground crop material below the specified cut height becomes standing residue.
T Nov 02, 2005	Created - Larry Wagner
T Detailed info regarding this operation record:
T This harvest record specifies the actual cut height dependent upon the height
T of the crop.  The cut height is specified as a fraction of the crop height.
T Added 0.2 for the flatting of the combine and tire trafic for haulling grain.
T MAS 1-18-07
T The harvesting operation could also have an effect on the "standing stalk"
T fall rate and fall threshold values.  The default "biomass pool" flag parameter
T is set to "No adjustments applied" so that no "stalk residue decay rate change" will occur.
T However, this flag value can be changed along with the default parameter values
T to change the "stalk residue decay processes".
