| Abstract/Description: | A case study was carried out in selected districts of Tamil Nadu to study the impact of rice transplanter. It was observed that there is a paradigm shift from manual rice transplanting to mechanical rice transplanting, basically due to increased farm power availability, reduction in working manpower, import of mechanical rice transplanter and constant government support through various schemes. It is observed that for the 8 row Yanji rice transplanter, the break even hours of usage is 100 per annum. The total cost of operation of the machine works out to Rs. 200 /h, where in Yanmar rice transplanter, it was found that the break even hours of usage is 550 per annum. The total cost of operation of the machine works out to Rs. 400 /h. Case study clearly depicts that custom hiring services will help both farmers and entrepreneur in rice cultivation. |
