ABSTRACT

Agriculture is a major sector for any developing country.The Discovery of Agriculture is the first big step towards civilized life, advancement of agricultural tools is the basic trend of agricultural improvement. Now the qualitative approach of this project is to develop a system which minimizes the working cost and also reduces the time for digging operation and seed sowing operation by utilizing solar energy to run the agribot. In this machine, solar panel is used to capture solar energy and then it is converted into electrical energy which is used to charge battery, which then gives the necessary power to a permanent magnet DC motor(PMDC), ultrasonic sensor used for obstacle detection, controlled using Arduino atmega and renewable energy source like solar energy used to propel the agribot and operation is using Bluetooth and controlled automatic and manual through mobile application thus this agribot is clean energy based and farmer friendly and the purpose of this project is to increase the productivity for farmer.
