Abstract


In the agriculture-based nation of India, 70% of all food is produced on-site. However, as the population grows, the property is divided up among the family, thus the average Indian farmer only possessed two acres. Due to their inability to acquire tractors and other expensive machinery, the farmers are also extremely cash-strapped and revert to traditional farming. Basically, a lot of farmers in India also work with horses, buffalo, and oxen to farm. In comparison to other nations in the world, it falls short in meeting the energy needs of agriculture. Therefore, we believe that labor-intensive and expensive human and animal labour can be substituted by advanced mechanization that is suitable for small farmers. So, in order to meet all of these needs and address the staffing issue, we developed this device.
