Animal drawn improved implement package consist of improved bakhar, three row seed-cum-fertilizer drill and sweep cultivator were evaluated at farmers’ field in village-Bhuriyapura of Dewas district in Malwa Plateau of Madhya Pradesh. The seed bed preparation, seed sowing, interculture and spraying operations were considered to finalize the implements package for soybean crop cultivation. During the study, field performances of the improved implements were compared with conventional implements used by the farmers. In seedbed preparation, improved bakhar was found more effective than conventional bakhar. It saved 17.6% labour, 16.7% cost of operation and 18.5% time of operation over conventional bakhar. In seeding, the three row seed-cum-fertilizer drill has 13.5% increased field capacity and saved 10.5% labour over locally used Tifan. In case of interculture, use of two row sweep cultivator increased 13.7 % weeding efficiency and 0.04 ha/h field capacity in comparison to Dora which leads to saving of 49.8% of weeding cost as compared to Dora and 94.5% labours over manual weeding. In spraying operation, the operational cost knapsack sprayer was ₹ 285/ per ha.
