A comparetively far larger percentage of non-household based (special) land holding used water pumps (engine or electric ) and generators/motors ( other fixed power producing equipment) (33.33% and 5.78%) than household-based agricultural holdings (15.38% against 0.47%)(Table 7,8)

28.21% of special land holdings used tractors for cultivation, while only 0.31% of household-based land holdings used tractors.(Table 10,11) 9.93% of the household-based land holdings used huller machines, while only a few used other farm machinery 2.00% and power tillers 0.32% ( Table 10)

Special land holdings used machinery and equipment more than the household-based land holdings (15.38% used power tillers, 7.69% use huller machines, and 23.08% used other farm machineries.) (Table 11,Figure 10)
