Abstract

Agriculture is the backbone of Indian economy. About half of the total population of our country has chosen agriculture as their chief occupation. As centuries passed, certain modern techniques were invented in agriculture due to the progress in science. These discoveries improved the standard of living of farmers. Agro-Technology is the process of applying the technology innovation occurring in daily life and applying that to the agriculture sector which improves the efficiency of the crop produced and also to develop a better electro-mechanical machine to help the agriculture field which reduces the amount and time of work spent on one crop. Hence in this work of project we decided to design a better electro-mechanical machine which is available to the farmers at a cheaper rate and also which can dig and seed the crop at the same time. This project consists of the better design of the machine which can be used specifically for sowing of soybean, maize, pigeon pea, Bengal gram, groundnut etc. For various agricultural implements and non-availability of sufficient farm labor, various models of seed sowing implements becoming popular in dry land regions of India. The success of crop production depends on timely seeding of these crops with reduced dull work of farm labor. The ultimate objective of seed planting using improve sowing equipment is to achieve precise seed distribution within the row.
