Oilseed crops are the second most important determinant of agricultural economy, next only
to cereals within the segment of field crops. Among oilseed Safflower
(CarthamustinctoriusL.) is an important oilseed crop with 35-40 % oil. It has been used as a
source of edible oil and dying since ancient time. Effective use of agriculture machinery
helps to increase productivity and production of output, undertake timely farm operations.
This judicious use of time, labour and resources facilitates sustainable intensification and
timely. Planting of crops, leading to an increase in productivity. Hence Mechanical power has
become more economical and indispensable to meet targets of timeliness and efficient
utilization of natural resources and inputs (Srinivasaraoet al., 2013) Mechanization in
safflower crop will help to timely field operation and easy for harvesting and save huge cost
of cultivation and sort the labour problem of farmer. This study is therefore carried out to
determine suitable mechanization practice in safflower.
