Farm machinery has replaced manual labor and animal-drawn machinery in modern agriculture. It includes tractors, soil cultivation machines, seeders, transplanters, mulch machines, fertilizers, irrigation machinery, and harvesting machines. Advanced machinery has revolutionized the agricultural industry, making it more cost-effective and productive. Computerized machinery is also used, including satellite imagery, GPS guidance, and electrical sensors. Other vehicles like trucks, planes, and helicopters are used for transportation and crop spraying.
Farm machinery are the machines that are used on farms to assist in agricultural work. Previously hand tools and animal-drawn machinery were used. In modern times, mechanized agriculture is the norm. Electric or fuel-powered machines perform most of the tasks that were once performed by humans and animals.
Using machinery takes less time and is more cost-effective than doing manual labor or using tools such as scythes or animal-drawn ploughs. Advances in agricultural machinery have revolutionized the agricultural industry. Whether it is a family farm, organic farm or commercial farm, a wide variety of agricultural machinery is used. Commercial farming uses more sophisticated agricultural equipment than the other two.
Modern agriculture is not only mechanized, it is also computerized. Farmers routinely use satellite imagery, GPS guidance and electrical sensors in their agricultural work. Advanced agricultural machinery reduces waste and ensures more profitable use of seeds, fertilizers, irrigation and fuel. It improved the production and transportation of agricultural products.
The most common and well-known agricultural machine would be the tractor. Tractors are used to pull a variety of agricultural machinery and equipment. The agricultural machines used for soil cultivation include the plough, the motor hoe, the pointed, trailing and disc harrow, the chisel plough, the cultivator, the spading machine and the stone picker. These machines clear the ground of stones and weeds and loosen the soil ready for planting.
The actual seeding is done using mechanized seeders, transplanters, seeders, broadcasters and mulch layers. Planters plant seeds in precise rows at precise intervals. I drill plant seeds much closer together than planters.
Transplanters transplant seedlings into the field and can be partially or fully automated. Mulch machines can spread natural or plastic mulch. Growing plants are helped together with fertilizers, manure and spreaders.
Irrigation is facilitated by specialized irrigation machinery. Quick and ready mechanized irrigation systems have made it possible to grow high yields of crops in arid areas. Water can also be supplied over a wide range of terrains and in specific quantities required.
Farming machine harvesting includes popular harvester and threshing machine. The combine harvester, as it is usually called, saves farmers a lot of time and effort. Cut, thresh and sort the grain as it makes its way through the cultivated fields. Other agricultural harvesting machines are cane, corn, and bean pickers and cotton pickers. Conveyors, gleaners, gravity carts, diggers, and windrowers are other commonly used agricultural machinery.
Racks, mowers, balers and bale movers are used to make hay bales. Backhoe loaders and front shovels are used for loading operations. Vehicles such as trucks, planes and helicopters are used for transportation. Planes and helicopters can also be used to spray crops and follow animal herds.
