DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF MULTIPURPOSE ELECTRIC VEHICLE USED FOR AGRICULTURE PURPOSE

Our project aims to develop an innovative electric power tilling machine that serves as a multipurpose tool for seed sowing, ploughing, and weeding. It is different from conventional counterparts in that it uses electric power, which minimizes environmental impact and is in line with sustainable practices. Specialized attachments designed for specific agricultural tasks are among the key features. The mechanism for sowing seeds ensures ideal placement, spacing, and depth of seeds, thereby improving crop germination and yield. The ploughing attachment offers flexibility with adjustable parameters to accommodate diverse soil types. By carefully identifying and removing undesirable vegetation, weeding helps to lessen the need for chemical herbicides. By combining these tasks, resource utilization is optimized, operational expenses are reduced, and economic viability is increased. Farmers will find it easier to use this machine because of its user-friendly controls and real-time monitoring. In conclusion, this project provides a comprehensive approach to effective, adaptable, and sustainable farming. The integration of seed sowing, ploughing, and weeding functions tackles modern issues and encourages a more efficient and ecologically responsible method of crop production in agriculture. Our electric power tilling machine achieves an effective field capacity of 0.022 ha/h and a weeding efficiency of 79.72%, presenting a competitive alternative to manual tillers, which show a capacity of 0.04 ha h-1 and a weeding efficiency of 93% for shallow-rooted weeds
