Solar Operated Agribot For Green House Farming

The idea for this research work is born out of concern for development of a multipurpose Agribot powered by nonconventional energy, hence economically viable for large section of farming community which is economically poor in India. Traditionally farming processes such as grass cutting, seed sowing, Ploughing and spraying are carried out one after the other using different types of equipment's thus consuming more energy and time, whereas Agribot combines all these operations in a single platform. And it reduces operating costs for the farmers. Our plan presents a system with high speed of operation for a sophisticated agriculture method that embody Grass cutting, Seed sowing, Sprinkling, Ploughing and a solar battery for battery charging. Mainly our robotic system is a mechanical device in nature that is steered by DC motor; the system is mounted on a frame with four wheels. Grass cutting, seed sowing, Ploughing and spraying work, take significant length of time. This approach reduces farmer's time and helps him to focus on cultivation and care of crops. Therefore, resulting in increase in farm efficiency by using multipurpose agricultural robot.We can remotely control this type of machine. An electrical device is utilized to charge the battery. An artificial language is utilized in programming the microcontrollers. The microcontroller is utilized to manage and monitor the tactic. This equipment is most suitable for farming of vegetable crops (for ex:-tomato, cucumber, Green-chills) grown in green house, where for the process of tilling, ploughing the power requirement is significantly lesser as compared to other farming processes.
