Economic analysis of agricultural mechanization in mid-hill zone of Himachal Pradesh was conducted in the Mandi district of Himachal Pradesh. The results revealed that the mechanization index at the overall farm category was 0.26, which varied from 0.21 to 0.53 among different categories of farms. The highest (0.53) farm mechanization index was found in medium farms and the lowest (0.21) in marginal farms. It can further be observed that the coefficient of variation was highest (39.00 %) in marginal farms and lowest (6.52 %) in medium farms. At the overall level, 46.15 percent variation was found in farm mechanization.

The research objective was to determine the suitability of land for a certain class of agricultural crops, namely, vanilla, oil palm, coconut, cocoa, nutmeg and cloves and to determine the direction of the crop land use. The study used survey method and analysis is to compare with criteria data suitability of land for plantation crops. Based on the results obtained twenty eight overlay land units and land units nineteen taken as a sample. The results show the suitability of land in Bacan Island of South Halmahera District for commodity crop plantations vanilla, oil palm, coconut, nutmeg and cloves in a class of land suitability is quite suitable (S2), cocoa belongs to a class of land suitability is marginally suitable (S3) with limiting factor the relative humidity. Economic analysis for all commodities is very suitable for development and Bacan Island of South Halmahera Regency.

The reinvigorated approach by stakeholders towards Farm Mechanization has given birth to emerging fears in the existing relationship between mechanized agriculture and traditional land occupancy systems in Nigeria. The increased importation of agricultural machines into the country gave room for cropland growth that butt in farm lands acquired by rural farmers through customary ways. This paper examines these fears in four segments. The first segment searches the unstable land occupancy systems in Nigeria that have showed an elegant equilibrium relationship between constitutions and traditional acts. The second observes the acceptance of Agricultural mechanization and the expanding relevance of tractors. The third scrutinizes the different fears, aggravated by population increase, which come in being as mechanization overshoots on traditionally secured lands. These fears result in to the abuse of labour, continuous land seizures, and the imposing of rural farmers into a blank in which few market options live. To assist relief these fears, the final segment recommends the moderating of large Agricultural machines growth and the systematic improvement of land occupancy systems in preparation for more privatization. By marrying land occupancy systems and Farm mechanization, the environments will survive for more judicious evolution in Nigeria.
