Abstract: Mechanized Anti-Drought Potato Cultivation measure is a new technology for the mass planting of potatoes under the state-of-the-art agricultural productivity. This technology works against drought, increases productivity, saves cost and improves effectiveness. Xiji county is one of the major potato producers of China,from which the potatoes are well-known for their quality across the domestic market. Under the lasting limitation of its arid climate and the undeveloped planting methodology,the productivity is hindered by the high cost and low efficiency in the production process,which is limiting its industrialization.The core questions are： is mechanization appropriate to the potato production process of Xiji county？How effective is it？How to make use of the existing conditions to develop a mechanized anti-drought potato cultivation technology？This paper combines the study with the implementation of industrialization program to conduct an experimental analysis of mechanized and manual planting of potatoes;it delivers essential opinions and suggestions in the attempt to contribute to the future development of mechanized production of potatoes in Xiji county.
