Design and Development of a Multipurpose Agriculture Machine Operated By Solar Energy

Abstract

Solar-operated multipurpose agricultural machines are designed to reduce the dependence of farmers on traditional farming methods. The machine is powered by solar energy, which is renewable and environmentally friendly. It can perform multiple functions, such as tilling, planting, irrigation, and harvesting. This type of machine can be operated by a single person, reducing labor costs and increasing efficiency. The machine's modular design allows it to be easily customized according to the specific needs of the farmer. Overall, solar-operated multipurpose agricultural machines can greatly benefit small farmers in developing countries where access to energy and modern farming equipment is limited. It promotes sustainable agriculture and contributes to the socio-economic development of rural communities. For a very long time, agriculture has been and will continue to be the foundation of the Indian economy. Nearly 75% of the population in India is dependent on agriculture. These initiatives are carried out in the agricultural sector and include activities such as inter-cultivation, seed sowing, good transport, and pesticide spraying, among others. We can save the greatest time and labour by employing this machine. Filling the gap between farmers and the application of technology in agriculture is crucial. We view this project as a revolution in India's small farms, the most underserved market in this industry. It is also more cost-effective. Global "Huge Energy Crisis" is a problem. The utilization of unconventional energy as a backup plan to satisfy future "energy demands" is unavoidable. Agriculture must be modernized to meet the needs of a population that is expanding for food. This project involves performing activities in the agricultural field, such as intercropping, sowing, and pesticide spraying that are environmentally beneficial and pollution-free. We can cut back on labour and time most effectively by using this gadget.
