Skid Steer Loader
Used for a variety of tasks like loading, digging, and moving material on the farm due to its agility and compact size.
Hedge Trimmer
Used for trimming hedges and shrubbery to maintain a clean shape and promote healthy growth.
Mulch Layer
Used to lay plastic or organic mulch in rows to suppress weeds, conserve water, and improve crop yields.
Peat Machine
Used for the extraction of peat, an accumulation of partially decayed vegetation or organic matter used in agriculture as a soil amendment.
Field Stacker
Used for stacking bales of hay or straw in the field, allowing them to be easily transported and stored.
Cotton Picker

Backhoe
Used for digging trenches, holes, and foundations, as well as for lifting and moving heavy loads.
Chisel Plow
Used for deep tillage, breaking up soil without turning it over, which helps to reduce soil erosion and maintain organic matter.
Manure Spreader
Used to distribute manure over a field to act as a fertilizer, enhancing the soil's nutrient levels.
Hay Rake
Used to collect cut hay or straw into rows for easy baling or for further drying before collection.
Tractor
Used for plowing, tilling, and planting fields, as well as for hauling equipment and supplies.
Rice Transplanter
Used for planting rice seedlings into paddy fields, significantly increasing efficiency and reducing labor requirements.
Baler
Used for compressing a cut and raked crop (such as hay, straw, or cotton) into compact bales for easy handling, transport, and storage.
Sprayer
Used for applying liquid substances to crops, including water, herbicides, pesticides, and fungicides.
Rotary Tiller

Corn Planter
Used for planting corn kernels in the ground at a particular depth and spacing, ensuring an optimal growth environment.
Irrigation System
Used for supplying water to the crops through systems like sprinklers, drips, and pivots to ensure proper growth and yield.
Post Hole Digger
Used for digging holes in the earth to install fence posts, tree planting, and other applications requiring precise vertical excavation.
Mower
Used for cutting grass and other plants that grow on the ground, typically to prepare hay or to clear the terrain.
Combine Harvester
Used for harvesting crops such as wheat, maize, soybeans, and rice by combining three steps: reaping, threshing, and winnowing.
Seed Drill
Used for sowing seeds at the correct depth and distance apart, while also covering them with soil.
Fertilizer Spreader
Used to evenly distribute fertilizer over fields to promote uniform plant growth and higher yields.
Stone Picker
Used to remove rocks and debris from soil to prevent damage to other farm machinery and improve the soil condition for planting.
Plough
Used for turning over the upper layer of the soil, bringing fresh nutrients to the surface while burying weeds and crop residues.
Subsoiler
Used to break up and loosen the soil deeper than a traditional plow is capable of reaching.
Disc Harrow
Used for soil preparation that cuts into the soil with steel discs to break up clods and level the ground.
Drip Irrigation System
Used to slowly deliver water directly to the plant roots, minimizing evaporation and water use.
