Agricultural machinery

Agricultural machineries are the machineries used in agriculture on agricultural area or farm. Bale mover, Bale wrapper, Baler and Big Baler, Conditioner, Tractor, Chisel plough, Harrow, harvesting machines and Plough are some of the commonly using machineries for agriculture. Current mechanized agriculture includes the use of airplanes, helicopters, trucks and tractors, among other vehicles. Modern farms even sometimes use computers in conjunction with satellite imagery and GPS guidance to increase yields. The need for mechanization is as a result of the global population increase which must be fed. It improves the production efficiency by reducing cost per unit of product, encourages large scale production and improves the quality of farm produce. On the other hand, it replaces unskilled farm labour. Tillage implements prepare the soil for planting by loosening the soil and killing weeds or competing plants. Some crops are planted by drills, which put out much more seed in rows less than a foot apart, blanketing the field with crops. Transplants automate the task of transplanting seedlings to the field. After planting, other implements can be used to cultivate weeds from between rows or to spread fertilizer and pesticides. Hay balers can be used for tightly package grass or alfalfa into a storable form for the winter months.
