Abstract

Agriculture being one of the major occupation in India, Agriculture plays a vital role in the Indian economy. Indian agriculture has registered impressive growth over last few decades. It is very essential to discover and implement new idea in this field, though lot of work has been done in this area. It is unfortunate that, these ideas are not being implemented properly in actual field. This is due to high cost and is complicated for rural people. Multipurpose agriculture or farming machine is basic and major machine involved in agriculture for maximum yielding. The Conventional method of ploughing and seed sowing is a laborious process and hence for that reason there is a scarcity of labours and Basically, many farmers in India also use bullocks, horses and he-buffalo for farming operation. This will not satisfy need of energy requirement of the farming as compared to other countries in the world. This result in delayed agriculture crop production practices to overcome these difficulties, I am thinking that human and animal efforts can be replaced by some advance mechanization which will be suitable for small scale farmer from economical and effort point of view. So, I developing this machine which will satisfy all this need and to solve labour problem. A multipurpose farming machine is designed. The multipurpose farming machine is doing four operations i.e. ploughing, seed sowing, irrigation and transportation purpose. The multipurpose farming machine is driven by 100cc engine. The machine is divided into two parts assembly. Part-1 assembly is the main machine. The part-1 assembly is doing three operations i.e. Ploughing (also called as loosening of soil), seed sowing and irrigation. And the part-1 assembly operator walks behind the machine during the working period of machine. For the loosening of soil, the iron plough tool is assembled to tool holder of machine and the gripper wheel is also attach to the tyre. The gripper is providing a proper grip into soil and will stop the tyre for skidding action into soil. At a time only one row is plough. In seed sowing operation the seed sowing machine is assembled to machine and the furrows will be place back of plough tool. The seed is store in hopper of seed sowing machine after storing seed into hopper the seed is come into rotor box. The rotor box contain rotor (different rotors for different crops) and this rotor wheel is throwing seed into the furrows. The plough tool is hoe or plough the soil after ploughing into the soil the seed will be fall into soil and the T-Shape leveler is cover soil. In the seed sowing operation there are two row is sow at a time. The machine is seed sow constantly at the uniform depth and constant plant to plant distance. There are less wastage of seed and less time required for sowing seed. The pump is also assembling into machine for irrigation purpose and pump will take a power from engine with the help of V-Belt drive. Pump is pumping water from canal or river or lake or pond to the farming place. The part-1 assembly is only working on farming field i.e. off road. The part-2 assembly is trolley which is joining to the part-1 assembly with the help of knuckle joint. The part-2 assembly working on road. The main aim of joining part-2 assembly to the machine is transportation goods, seed, fertilizers etc. from farmer home to farming place or farming place to farmer home. Both the part assembly will be joint and separate by one person easily. not required more number of labour to operate this machine only one person is operating this machine easily. The multipurpose farming machine will be available for small and medium farmer at affordable price. For using this machine productivity of the crops will be increase.
