Abstract:
Designing and fabrication of battery operated sowing machines is vital for Indian agriculture due to its potential to revolutionize traditional farming practices. These machines enhance efficiency by automating the seed planting process, saving farmers valuable time and labor. Precision in seed placement ensures optimal seed-to-seed spacing and depth, leading to improved crop establishment and higher yields. Additionally, sowing machines offer cost-effectiveness by reducing labor costs and seed wastage. They contribute to increased productivity by enabling farmers to cover larger areas in less time, thereby maximizing land utilization. Moreover, their adaptability to various crops and planting conditions makes them invaluable tools for Indian farmers operating in diverse agro-climatic regions. Overall, the design and fabrication of sowing machines represent a significant step towards modernizing Indian agriculture and ensuring sustainable food production for the growing population.
