Abstract

Agriculture is very important for the Indian economy. India being a developed nation, where agriculture plays a major role in developing the nation needs in all outcomes, The present project aims to develop Solar Powered tiller to reduce the time of the farmer by digging into the soil for multiple times in a certain area, where it’s having an attachment of seed sowing. The chain sprocket is a motorized by wiper motor and tiller blade will break the soil into small pieces, which helps improve the aeration of soil and prevents weeds from growing. Here the power to accelerate the equipment is utilized from the solar panel and stored in the battery for further purpose, where the panel is fixed at the top of the tiller for continuous rays of energy absorption. The multimeter is fixed to check the solar panel output voltage. By using the power, it tends to run the tiller in a proper manner. The seed sowing hopper is fixed at back side of wheel, where the seeds are flow in ground by reciprocating motion by means of rotating wiper motor. Now this project's major focus is on creating a functional operating system. High safety reduced human effort, improved soil tiller efficiency, decreased work load, less worker fatigue, and lower maintenance costs are all achieved by the project.
