Scope of Farm Mechanization:



Arunachal Pradesh with a massive 94% rural population, is the largest state in the North-East India. Consequently, the economy of the state is based of agriculture. Jhum cultivation and Terrace farming are the major patterns that the farmers employ to uplift agriculture in Arunachal Pradesh. Most of the agriculture operations are performed by using animate power sources. In Jhum cultivation only hand tools are used such as spade, khurpi, sickle, dibbler, daw, grass slasher etc. Lands are prepared by cutting down the shrubs/weeds with the help of Phwawrah or spade and sowing is done manually by dibbling. Out of 83,743 sq. km of agriculture land in Arunachal Pradesh, 1.10 lakh hectare is under Jhum cultivation and 90 lakh hectare under permanent cultivation. The topography and climate of Arunachal Pradesh is conducive for the cultivation of rice, millet, wheat, pulses, sugarcane and potatoes. Since most of the farm, operations in Arunachal Pradesh are done by manually or using animal power hence, there is great scope of selective mechanizing by introducing improved hand tools such as improved sickles, dibblers, weeders, etc. in order to reduce drudgery. The seed bed preparation operations should be mechanized by promoting animal/power tiller drawn equipment.
