Abstract
Agricultural development in India has been closely linked with the progress in agricultural mechanization. During the early sixties, with the introduction of high yielding varieties of rice, wheat and other crops, which needed good irrigation facilities; progressive farmers soon realized that the traditional water lifts, which were driven by draught animals or operated manually, could not meet the water requirement of the high yielding varieties of different crops. Lift irrigation was, therefore, quickly mechanized through use of electric motor or diesel engine powered pumps. Further, due to advancement in Agricultural Engineering new machineries and tools were developed to reduce cost of production of crops and drudgery of farm operations. New machineries and tools were widely adopted by the farmers for various farm operations which resulted in higher productivity of crops.
