A method for segregating qualities of an agricultural product during processing of the product comprises the step of setting a desired range of a measurement value. The measurement value represents a property of the produc t and defines a first quality of the product for which the measurement value i s inside the range and a second quality of the product for which the measureme nt value is outside the range. The method further comprises the step of analyzi ng the quality of the product that is being processed. The step of analyzing comprises the steps of continuously extracting samples of the product, irradiating each sample by electromagnetic radiation, spatially separating electromagnetic radiation of different wavelengths, and detecting electromagnetic radiation emitted from the sample. The step of detecting produces intensity signals indicative of detected electromagnetic radiation of different wavelengths. The step of analyzing further comprises the steps of determining a sample value of said property of the product from the intensit y signals, and determining a measurement value from at least one sample value. The method further comprises the step of separating the product of said firs t quality from the product of said second quality on the combine. |
