Farmers Response
Increase in Water application efficiency Saving in irrigation water, (20 30%) Better crop stand Improved weed control efficiency Less area under bunds/ridges Very good for Bed/Ridge Farming Reduced labor requirement for irrigation Totally Automatic (less load on operator)
Was Limitations
High cost of the equipment/laser instrument Needs training to the operator to set/adjust laser and operate the tractor More efficient for regularly sized and shaped field Few custom operators
Benefits
Improved Crop Establishment Uniform Crop Maturity Increased Productivity Increased Yield Reduced Chemical Run-off Assist in Top Soil Management Increased in Cultivable area (2% - 3%)
Growth of Laser Leveling in Punjab - Created Market Conditions for Pvt. Sector
