The role of mechanization in the productivity of potato production in Ardabil city

Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 22

Abstract

Productivity measurement is useful tool for analyzing the performance changes over time. The objective of this study mechanization role in potato productivity growth the city of Ardabil, And introduce the parameters and factors affecting the productivity of potato fields and provides practical solutions to enhance the productivity of potato production is in the Ardabil region. A useful tool for measuring productivity performance changes over time is analyzed. Therefore, in this study using data obtained from the farmer, Ardebil region and using indicators to investigate the role of mechanization in production efficiency Malmquist potatoes have been in this city. For this purpose, a questionnaire was designed to determine the validity and reliability. The sample was distributed. Cronbach's alpha coefficient for this number, 0.71 is obtained. The results of this study suggest that degree of mechanization for tillage for potatoes grow by 98 percent, and the woman drives 35% and 57% and fertilizer formulation 3% Malay and 61 percent are plantation. This means that the total levels in which potatoes are planted, 98 percent failed to mechanize plowing, 57% of the disk being mechanized, mechanized fertilizer application by 35 percent to 3 percent as mechanized trowel piping started and finally, 61 percent operation's cultured potatoes have been mechanized. Intradermally, more carefully we find that the degree of mechanization of operations such as plowing and disc pressure more energy than lower operational energy but want more control and precision, like many of his operations, is much more. Due to the overwhelming power of this operation and whether it was more economical to mechanization and there is a time limit for the car that caused them to have been granted. Promote and use of technology is the basic methods.
