In this study, an expert system named ESMEF (Expert System for Mechanized Entrusted Farming) was developed. The function of ESMEF is to provide the various data and informations for entrusted farming such as farm machinery management data, mechanization systems by farm sizes, number of units and sizes of machinery needed, machinery replacement analysis, mechanization costs analysis. Mechanization systems were selected by ESMEF for different farming sizes of Chungnam Province and an economic analysis was conducted as an example. The results showed that the farm machinery purchasing costs were 1,344~4,829 thousand won per ha and there was no significant difference for farm sizes above 60 ha. The total annual machinery costs were 3,595~4,537 thousand won per ha, and a minimum cost was appeared for farm size of l00ha at first. According to this analysis, an optimum entrusted farming size would be 100ha by the present available farm machinery systems.

This study has been performed to develop a program which can help the management of the entrusted farming company(EFC). An algorithm for machinery cost estimation and computer programs were developed and those were tested with sample data of EFC for the fm size of 50 ha. The results of the test showed for the farm size of 50ha that tillage cost was 18, 785 thousand won ; 23, 441 thousand won for the transplanting, 24, 904 thousand won for the combining, and 4, 024 thousand won for drying. An algorithm for the critical entrusted In analysis and a computer program were developed and those were tested with data estimated. The results showed that tillage fee was 376 thousand won per ha, 496 thousand won for transplanting 495 thousand won for combining and, 32, 480 won per ton for drying. The algorithms and a computer program were developed for the analysis of the critical optimum working area when the entrusted working fee was provided.
