Agricultural mechanization

Mechanization of agriculture is a mechanical application of machinery or equipment in the agricultural production process both on-farm and off-farm.
Appropriate with the higher human need for agriculture, the development of Mechanization of agriculture were also implemented.


Increased agricultural production is most often brought about by the introduction of improved crop varieties and by creating an optimal environment such that the plants and animals can develop to their full potential. Planting, tending and harvesting a crop requires both a significant amount of power and a suitable range of tools and equipment. Mechanization of farming has allowed an increase to the area that can be planted and has contributed towards increased yields, mainly due to the precision with which the crop husbandry tasks can be accomplished. In fact, most farmers in developing countries experience a greater annual expenditure on farm power inputs than on fertilizer, seeds or agrochemicals.
