Abstract

This investigation was carried out at Elmarj region eastern Libya to study the situation of mechanization and to determine degree, level, index of agricultural mechanization and cost analysis. The cultivation area, number of tractors and its power, machines and labors number, wheat crop yield, degree level, and index of mechanization were identified. Data showed that the average level of mechanization is equal to 0.53 kW/ha and the mechanical support for production is 9.63 kW/labor. While, the mechanization degree recorded 2.40 kW h/ha according to labor power. Similarly, mechanization degree of all activity found as 189.32 kW h/ha according to drawbar power. General agricultural operations for mechanization index was 43.56 %. The total calculated costs for tillage, seeding and harvesting operations were 19.14, 19.36 and 71.07 D/h, respectively. Also, the total calculated costs for all operations  in the study region was 108.68 D/ha. The producing cost of one ton of wheat grain and straw under region study was 32.44 and 26.51 D/ton respectively.
