2023 AMM - Chap 1 Flashcards
deals with the
study of the application, use and
management of various agricultural
machines, tools and equipment used for
production and post-production
operations
agricultural machinery
is the
development, manufacture and extension
of appropriate agricultural tools,
implements, and machinery using animal,
human, mechanical, electrical, and other
renewable sources of energy for
agricultural production and development
and post harvest operations.
agricultural mechanization
RA 10601
Agriculture and Fisheries Mechanization Law
Improving the Agriculture and Fishery Sector
through Mechanization. It covers research, development, and
extension promotion distribution, supply, assembling, manufacturing,
regulation, use, operation and maintenance of project implementation
of agricultural and fishery machinery and equipment.
Agriculture and Fisheries Mechanization Law – Republic Act
10601 (June 5, 2013)
– Republic Act
10915 (July 21, 2016) – An act strengthening, modernizing and
aligning the practice of agricultural engineering in the country into the
internationally recognized practice of agricultural and biosystems
engineering, and for other purposes
Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering Law
Refers to farm power and machinery for the production, harvesting,
processing, storage, manufacture, preserving, transporting and
distribution of agricultural and biological products/materials and
includes, but not limited to, tractors and their attachments, power
tillers, seeders, transplanters, windmills, harvesting machines, crop
protection and maintenance equipment, irrigation equipment and
accessories, greenhouses and thermal conditioning equipment,
livestock, poultry, fishery and forest equipment, slaughter equipment,
meat/fishery and crop processing equipment, post harvest machines
such as milling machines, dryers, threshers, grain and other strippers,
agricultural transport machinery and storage.
Agricultural and Biosystems Power and
Machinery
– This are equipment designed
primarily for agricultural field operation. These include agricultural
tractors, self-propelled machines, implements, and their
combinations
Agricultural Field Equipment
A traction machine designed primarily to
supply power to agricultural implements and farmstead equipment.
It propels itself and provides force to the direction of travel to enable
attached soil-engaging and other agricultural implements to perform
their intended function
AGRICULTURAL TRACTOR
An implement that is designed to
perform agricultural operations. This are further classified into: (a)
towed; (b) mounted; and (c) semi-mounted implements.
AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENT
An implement designed with integral
power unit to provide both mobility and power for performing
agricultural operations
SELF-PROPELLED MACHINE
These are equipment other than
agricultural field equipment used in agricultural operation for the
production of food and fiber
FARMSTEAD EQUIPMENT
is the development, manufacture,
and extension of appropriate agricultural tools, implements, and
machinery using animal, human, mechanical, electrical, and other
renewable sources of energy for agricultural production and
development as well as post harvest operation
AGRICULTURAL MECHANIZATION
is the process of using agricultural
machinery to mechanize the work of agriculture, greatly increasing
farm worker productivity.
