Performance analysis of rotavater and other tillage implements in the field during the year 2014-15 is calculated in this research paper performance analysis of rotavator and other tillage system is calculated the field capacity, Fuel consumption, actual, theoretical speed performance index and energy requirement for preparation of seed bed with the performance of rotavator is calculated in plot with area of 60 x 20 m2 the combination of ploughing ploughing + cultivating, ploughing + disc harrowing, ploughing + Rotavating, Single operation of rotavator and double operation of rotavator with speed of 5.21 km/h gave the highest performance index 83.34% and energy consumption was 586.73 MJ/h in this field area rotavator performance index is 25.75 and energy consumption 761.6 MJ/ha, respectively.Keywords
Mean Weight Diameter, Fuel Consumption, Energy Requirement.

The present study was undertaken on happy seeder for wheat crop under ricewheat the cropping system in Allahabad region. In this study evaluate the performance of the happy seeder with conventional method and show its effectiveness over the sowing technique. The performance evaluation was done from the basis of field capacity, field efficiency, actual field capacity, fuel consumption and cost of operation, the compression of economics of operation of happy seeder with conventional method of sowing wheat in combined harvested paddy field, to prove the effectiveness. The operating speed was varying from 2.5 to 3.5 kmph to evaluate the variables. The field efficiency of happy seeder was 43.4% and 65.04% for seed drill at operating speed of 3.5 kmph. The crop residue is heavy which was collected by sampling. The cost of operating per hectare by happy seeder was Rs. 2098.65 and cost of operation per hectare by seed drill + tillage operations was Rs. 3106.38. Therefore cost of operational with happy economical as compared to seed drill by Rs. 1008.38 per hectare. But happy seeder is unique technique for sowing wheat in combine harvested paddy field. It controls the weeds also.Keywords
