Abstract

Today’s era is proceeding towards the rapid growth of all sectors including the agriculture sector. In order to meet the future food demand, farmers have to implement new techniques which will not affect the field but will increase the overall food production. The comparison between the traditional method and the new proposed machine which can perform a number of simultaneous operations and has a number of advantages. A system with high speed of operation for an advanced automation in agriculture process which includes number of operation i.e. seed sowing, fertilizing and spraying [1]. The main source to drive the model by using solar energy and domestic 230volt supply for purpose of charging the battery. Embedded C language programming is used in microcontroller. The machine is controlled and it monitors the process of system motion of machine with the help of DC motor. The rates of control of seed sowing, fertilizing and spraying are supervised by microcontroller.
