Agriculture will continue to be the main driver of country’s economic growth in particular and globe in general. In spite of the above fact, not much has been done in the field of farming. On the other hand, the farmers are facing many problems and day by day suicidal cases are increasing all around the country. Following are the some serious problems faced by majority Indian farmers. To name a few:

This machine is particularly used for sowing seeds of wheat, soya bean in farm, but it can also be modified, to sow any other seed too, since arrangement of with control between seeds, length control and depth control is provided with simultaneous spreading of fertilizer at proper distance and depth from seeds and ground level respectively. In addition, this machine is designed considering most suitable parts and optimum design parameters. In future this machine will prove to be a boon for farmers of our country.
