Abstract

Rice production mechanization has important practical significance to ensure food security, improve the production efficiency, and reduce labor cost. This article is based on field investigation data of transfer machine running situation. By the statistical method, it studies the transfer machine and man-machine efficiency, investment payback period and cost, and the influence of transport machine on the field of soil compaction. The results show that the rice transport machine, compared with manual operation, can save labor cost 7 to 9 times, farmers bought transport machine only spend two years recovering the investment and profit. After rice transport machine achieves batch production, it can fill the gaps in rice production. It also helps to realize the fully mechanization in rice production.
