By the end of this lesson, learners will be able to:

  1. Identify major types of farm machineries used in agriculture.
  2. Explain the functions of machines used in land preparation, planting, crop care, harvesting, and post-harvest handling.
  3. Match farm machineries with their respective tasks for efficient farm management.
  4. Understand the benefits of mechanization for productivity and labor efficiency.

3. Interactive Activities

  • Drag-and-drop activity: Match each machine (e.g., plough, seed drill, combine harvester) to its correct farming stage.
  • Multiple-choice quiz: Identify the purpose of specific farm machineries.
  • Virtual simulation / video demonstration: Show a tractor pulling different implements or a combine harvester in action.
  • Discussion forum: Learners share experiences or suggestions for choosing machines suitable for small vs. large-scale farms.
