Abstract

Machines are designed for improving the productivity as well as performance. Now a day’s world is moving towards rapid growth of all sectors including the agricultural sector. Agriculture is vital source of income of India. About 65-70 % of Indian population depends upon agriculture. So for fulfilling the future demands there is need of advancement in techniques and equipment’s of farming at economic cost because in India every farmer can’t afford tractor and other high cost sowing equipment. Seed sowing and fertilizer placement is the main activity in farming. This project is based on enhancement of farming process. This machine is made up to accomplish task first one is seed sowing and another task is fertilizer spraying. Both of these mechanism work at the same time. The main objective of these operation are to place the seed as well as fertilizer at proper place and seeds at proper distance from each other with appropriate soil compaction. Increase in population demand also increases to meet the requirement of new techniques of cropping have to be implemented in farming sector. The basic requirements of seed sowing machine are it should be simple in design and construction affordable at low cost for farmers. Easy to handle and repair by farmers. In today’s era availability of labour is becoming great concern. This machine does the work with less effort and in less time so it reduces cost of labour required for seed sowing and fertilizer placement. The main scope of this project is to reduce the cost of machine and get optimum yield.
