Based on the statistical data of Azerbaijan, number of tractors, number of agricultural tools and machines and agricultural mechanization level indicators were calculated and summarized. Respectively in the years 2010 and 2021, average tractor power was identified as 68.2 and 74.7 HP, tractor power per cultivated area as 916 and 1672.2 HP/ha, number of tractors per 1000 hectares as 13.4 and 22.2, number of combine harvesters per 1000 hectares as 1.2 and 2.1, cultivated area per tractor as 75 and 45 ha, cultivated area per combine harvester as 821.5 and 458.3 ha, agricultural field per capita as 0.52 and 0.47 ha and finally number of people per unit area as 1910 and 2120.
