Meaning of Farm Power
Power is defined as the energy or force that can be used to do work. It is measured in watts (w) and kilowatts (kw). It is expressed as work done over time taken.
P=force×distancetime P=force×distancetime
Farm power can therefore be described as any source of energy used in carrying out farm operations or the various sources of energy used in doing farm work.
In all these operations, human power is by far the earliest source of power available on the farm and this is considered to be the very important in all activities carried out on the farm.
