A
Tools
B
Machines
C
Workers
D
Fields
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The level of mechanization has a significant positive impact on the cost, output value, income and return rate of all types of crops. For every 1% increase in the level of mechanization, the yields of all crops, grain crops and cash crops increase by 1.2151, 1.5941 and 0.4351%, respectively.

Detailed explanation-2: -Impact of farm mechanisation on employment revealed that one unit increase in input costs and machine time would decrease the labour requirement by 0.06 and 4.34 units, respectively. The major constraints in fully mechanised farms were insufficient number of machinery and high cost of machines.

Detailed explanation-3: -Different researchers have concluded that farm mechanization enhances the production and productivity of different crops due to timeliness of operations, better quality of operations and precision in the application of the inputs.

Detailed explanation-4: -The findings is in conformity with the findings of that less number of labour per hectare is required to complete the production process by mechanized farm compared to traditional farm. Family labour is mostly affected by the mechanization.
