ABSTRACT/ Agricultural activity is fundamentally carried out for developing the different crop yields local to a different neighbourhood in
the world's ecological system. This assorted variety needs distinctive agrarian innovations appropriate for every neighbourhood. Distinctive
innovations and automation frameworks must be given that match the condition of the farming. Mechanization in agriculture has been
characterized in various ways. Maybe the most extensive and fitting definition is that it involves all levels of cultivating and preparing
innovations, from basic and essential hand devices to more complex and mechanized implements. It incorporates all apparatuses, implements
and hardware and can utilize human, animal or mechanized power sources. Automation facilitates and lessens manual work (drudgery), calms
work deficiencies, enhance cultivation work profitability, enhances efficiency and convenience of farming activities, enhances the productive
utilization of assets, improves economy access and adds to relieving atmosphere related risks. This paper looks at the various literature on
mechanization in agriculture, starting with tillage and tillage methods, tillage implements suitable for primary tilling, tillage power, tillage
operations and performance. Moreover, it looks at the measurement of tillage efficiency parameters and tools including tillage power,
vibration, fuel consumption and slippage. Subsequently, it reviews in details the automated tillage Decision Support System (DSS) and decision
making applications. This include in details DSS, DSS classification, decision-making frameworks, agricultural data and data acquisition
mechanisms for decision making, a sensor for data capturing and data incorporation for DSS. The review covers different data sources including
research articles, books, reports and links of the dataset.
Keywords: Decision support system, tillage operations, tillage evaluation parameters, Artificial Intelligence, automated decision-making.
RESUMEN/ La actividad agrícola se lleva a cabo fundamentalmente para desarrollar los diferentes rendimientos de cultivos locales en un
vecindario diferente en el sistema ecológico del mundo. Esta variedad variada necesita innovaciones agrarias distintivas apropiadas para cada
vecindario. Se deben dar innovaciones distintivas y marcos de automatización que coincidan con la condición de la agricultura. La
mecanización en la agricultura se ha caracterizado de varias maneras. Quizás la definición más extensa y adecuada es que involucra todos los
niveles de cultivo y preparación de innovaciones, desde dispositivos manuales básicos y esenciales hasta implementos más complejos y
mecanizados. Incorpora todos los aparatos, implementos y hardware y puede utilizar fuentes de energía humana, animal o mecanizada. La
automatización facilita y disminuye el trabajo manual (trabajo pesado), calma las deficiencias de trabajo, mejora la rentabilidad del trabajo
de cultivo, mejora la eficiencia y la conveniencia de las actividades agrícolas, mejora la utilización productiva de los activos, mejora el acceso
a la economía y contribuye a aliviar los riesgos relacionados con la atmósfera. Este artículo analiza la literatura variada sobre mecanización
en agricultura, comenzando con métodos de labranza y labranza, implementos de labranza adecuados para labranza primaria, potencia de
labranza, operaciones de labranza y rendimiento. Además, analiza la medición de los parámetros y herramientas de eficiencia de labranza,

incluida la potencia de labranza, la vibración, el consumo de combustible y el deslizamiento. Posteriormente, revisa en detalle el sistema

captura de datos e incorporación de datos para DSS. La revisión cubre diferentes fuentes de datos, incluidos artículos de investigación, libros,
informes y enlaces del conjunto de datos.
