INTRODUCTION
• The automation in agriculture could help to farmers to
reduce their effort.
• To reduce labour cost, daily working hours, environmental
all impact and safety issues.
• The vehicle are being developed for the processes for
weeding, seed sowing, levelling and water spraying.
3
MOTIVATION
• To reduce human effort in the agricultural field with
the use of small machine.
• Farmer can operate this robot through remote by
sitting at one side and he can operate easily.
• The usage of solar can be utilized for Battery
charging.
4
RELEVANCE
• Lack of mechanization in farming
• Required excess efforts for different process.
• Required more man power.
• Excess time consumption for performing individual
process.

OUTCOMES
• In agriculture, by using the solar operated multi-
purpose robot. We can easily reduce the farmer
efforts and time.
• The machine required less man power and less time
compared to traditional method.
• So in this way we can overcome the labour problem
that is the need of today’s farming in India.
