In China, agricultural mechanization has played a remarkable, role in development of agricultural economy. This paper introduces briefly the contribution of agricultural mechanization to agricultural production , the level of mechanization , sciences and research , industry of farm machinery etc., at present. From macro view , aim at year 2000 , the prospects based on estimation concerned with the developing tendency , market demands, research fields are presented . The development of agricultural mechanization in China depends on many factors, in coming years, chance and challenge are coexistent. It wall take a long time for China to realize farm mechanization.

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of mechanizing onion harvesting on labor reduction and work efficiency in Shinan Area. The mechanized harvesting system comprised a stem cutter, digging harvester, and collector. The field tests showed that the average residual stem length after using the stem cutter was 13.22±5.01 cm, with a stem cutting ratio of 91.3% and a damage ratio of 0%. The digging harvester achieved a digging ratio of 100% and a damage ratio of 1.2%, while the collector's damage ratio was 4.1%, loss ratio was 2.7%, and debris mixing ratio was 3.2%. The total working capacity of the mechanized system was 2.3 h/10a, significantly reducing 97.2% of labor time compared to manpower. These results indicate that the mechanization of onion harvesting can effectively reduce labor costs and increase work efficiency. Future research should include performance verification in various environments and an economic analysis of the mechanized system.

In the path of agricultural development, agricultural mechanization has played some decisive roles such as protecting natural disaster, substitution of labor shortage in agricultural production and so on. In making our country's agricultural mechanization plan, Japanese agricultural mechanization policy has been frequently referred to but it's very hard to find informative data for systematic analysis of the mechanization policy. In this paper it was tried to analyze the resent trend in Japanese agricultural mechanization policy and it's performance with many materials published in Japan. As the results, four things are recommended to be considered in making Korean agricultural mechanization policy. First, faster enlargement of agricultural machinery size in Korea might be very harmful to drop down agricultural production cost. Second, diverse utilization methods of agricultural machniery should be introduced. Third, a marketing of the used agricultural machinery must be activated to reduce agricultural production cost. Lastly, the joint R & D for developing low price agricultural machniery is necessary for small markets.

China has a big population(22% of the world) and small cultivated land( only 7% of the world). Agriculture is very important and it has solved the problem of people's eating and wearing, and now it is creating favourable conditions for the state modernization and people's comparatively well-off. Farm mechanization plays an role in agriculture and has primarily developed. But the development is complicated since the big rural labour force and the small per capita cultivated land. The development and features of farm mechanization in China was summarized and the future task and its countermeasure was discussed in this paper.

This paper is to review the progress and the present status of mechanization in Korean agriculture and to introduce the development of the various sectors related to developing agricultural mechanization such as production, inspection , marketing , research and development , professional education , after-sales-service and adminstration. In addition, prospect of farm mechanization is also briefly discussed.

This is a comparative study on the policy of Korea and Japan for improving upland farming mechanization. Purpose of the study is to set a policy direction of improving efficiency of farm management by using agricultural machinery. Research topic is the agricultural mechanization policy at the national level. The research attempts to classify mechanization policies into framework plan, R&D, rent and lease program, upland farm promotion policies. Major features of the comparative analysis are followed. First, there is a similarity between policies of Korea and Japan in terms of the aim of framework plan and other policies settings. However, Japanese policies focus more on the joint management of farming than Korean policies. Japanese policies take an entire system covering from farm to market into account. Second, Japanese policies have much attention to the agricultural organizations such as corporate, cooperatives that are eligible for using agricultural machinery. This is different from Korean policy. Thus, upland farming mechanization policy needs to set priority, and to have systemic approach. Also, upland farming mechanization policy has to be facilitated in accordance with producer organizations and their marketing strategies.
