Mechanised agriculture is the process of using agricultural machinery to mechanise the work of agriculture, greatly increasing farm worker productivity. In modern times, powered machinery has replaced many farm jobs formerly carried out by manual labour or by working animals such as oxen, horses and mules.
Mechanization systems are categorized into human, animal and mechanical technologies. Based on the source of power, the technological levels of mechanization have been broadly classified as hand-tool technology, draught animal technology and mechanical power technology.
There are 3 levels of mechanisation
It includes three main power sources: human, animal and mechanical. Based on these three power sources,the technolo- gical levels of mechanization have been broadly classified as hand-tool technology, animal draught technology and mechanical power technology.
