A.G.R.I.Yantra: Agriculture Growth and Resource Improvising Yantra

The predicted global population increase, projected to surpass 10 billion by 2050, highlights an increasing need to enhance agricultural efficiency to meet the doubling food demand. This research focuses on the low-income farmers of India, exploring seed-sowing methodologies and proposing a novel, cost-effective automated apparatus utilizing mechatronics principles. The primary goal of this innovative machine is to alleviate the labor-intensive nature of agricultural tasks by enabling simultaneous plowing and seed planting. Powered by a DC motor and a rechargeable battery, this apparatus is designed to handle various seed types and spacing requirements according to agricultural best practices. The research aims to assist farmers by reducing the time spent on laborious activities, thereby allowing them to pursue alternative income-generating endeavors. This initiative particularly benefits those lacking the financial capacity to invest in traditional farming machinery, offering a sustainable solution to enhance agricultural productivity and efficiency.
