Importancia de la maquinaria agrícola en la reducción de costos para los productores de cultivos de ciclo corto

Agricultural machinery has an elementary representation in terms of the effectiveness of the modernization of procedures that include production within an agricultural statute, it can be classified into different types according to the size of complexity of distribution, standing out according to the category of light machinery, heavy and specialized. The objective of the study was based on analyzing the importance of agricultural machinery in reducing costs for short-cycle crop producers. Regarding the methodology, it was based on a qualitative approach because the impact of agricultural machinery is analyzed in depth, a bibliographic and technical review of agricultural machinery was carried out. In the results, the use of agricultural machinery in short-cycle crops such as rice and corn has proven to be important in reducing operational costs essentially in activities such as sowing preparation, soil aeration and harvest. In conclusion, agricultural machinery plays an important role in improving the operational costs of short-cycle crops. The mechanization of actions such as land preparation, sowing process and harvest have allowed us to reduce the period and resources that are used. invest, managing to generate savings of up to 40% in operating costs and reducing post-harvest loss. It is recommended to promote training and financing programs as much as possible to facilitate the accessibility of agricultural machinery for all farmers, this allows reducing operating costs and presenting the objective profitability.
