摘要：Merauke Regency is one of the largest rice producers in Papua Province with a total production of 344,192.32 tons in 2020, a harvested area of 61,584 ha and a rice productivity of 5.59 tons/ha. Agricultural development in Merauke Regency is supported by the availability of agricultural land and the modernization of agricultural equipment. The post-harvest process is the final phase that is key to success, so it must be handled properly to achieve maximum results once the post-harvest rice begins with the rice harvest. The rice harvest must be supported by a robust transport vehicle in wet and muddy fields. Vehicles with caterpillar drive wheels are compatible because the ground pressure is lower. The design of the rice transport vehicle selects the track wheel type as the drive wheel so that it can be used on wet and muddy surfaces. The vehicle chassis is designed for the transport of 1000-1500 kg of rice. The construction and analysis are simulated with Autodesk Inventor software; the Chasis model is analyzed for strength using the finite element method.
