INTRODUCTION
About 70% of Indian population depends on agriculture. India has a vast cultivable land area. The Indian soil is quite fertile too. All type types of crops can be easily grown on Indian soils. This truth has been understood by Indian soils. This truth has been understood by Indian people from the time immemorial. We have been producing all kharips, rabbi and other non-conventional types of grains along with fruits, vegetables, flower yielding plants, decoration purpose plants and woods. Bamboos of different types for their economical values. In early days & even today, trees of different types have been an easy today, trees of different types have been on easy source of fuel energy, building raw materials, industrial raw materials and cash treasures for India. This enormous size of agricultural production has not been developed in a day we have toiled alot for centuries together to improve our agricultural crops range and capacity. This requires a lot of knowledges, facilities and care with hardwork in the sun & rain. Good seeds in good fertile land grow but the best results are achieved only when optimum conditions are created on the form. This requires so many manual & power operated equipments, tools and devices for soil preparation , irrigation and wedding etc. The result of this long search & research is that today we have a huge lot of agricultural implements for specific operations right from soil cutting & Conditioning to harvesting of the crops.
