Given how much labor is required for corn growing, this is inefficient. Utilizing agricultural equipment and tools, efforts are made to increase corn cultivation’s production and effectiveness. Agricultural equipment and instruments are used during all stages of corn crop production, including tillage, planting, weeding, fertilizing, controlling pests and diseases, and harvesting. The mechanical and physical characteristics of the soil may be adversely affected by this activity. Organic matter treatment can lessen the negative effects on the use of agricultural machinery and equipment. In addition, the result of this research activity is an increase in corn productivity due to the addition of organic matter to the field. ## Keywords - Tillage - Environmental science - Agriculture - Agricultural machinery - Agricultural engineering - Sowing - Productivity - Agronomy - Production (economics) - Soil compaction - Organic matter - Compaction - Soil water - Engineering - Chemistry - Biology - Economics - Soil science - Macroeconomics - Geotechnical engineering - Ecology - Organic chemistry --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
