16 ref. Summary (En)
A generalized sequence of mechanization of Asian rice production is developed, based on experience in Japan, Taiwan, and Korea. By 1978, these countries had reached a relatively high level of mechanized riceland preparation. Labor force growth rates among Asian countries are compared. A net social benefit model for evaluating the desirability of mechanizing rice production is outlined and often neglected factors are identified. Available empirical evidence on some important factors is reviewed and the question of who benefits from mechanization is addressed
