Abstract: Solar energy is converted into the chemical energy, which is used to drive the different units of the system. In this work we have tried to implement how the different agriculture equipment are combined and work together efficiently with reducing the manufacturing cost which will be in affordable budget. The main aim behind this project is to construct the equipment which is essential for the farm field with affordable cost for the farmer along with good efficiency. Another problem is unavailability of labour and also, working cost of them is very high. This affects the working time. The trapping of solar energy and its conversion of it into the electricity is easy. The system consists of a mobile platform equipped with a sprayer, a fertilizer deployment mechanism, and a cutting tool. The sprayer utilizes precision spraying technology, including sensors and actuators, to deliver targeted application of pesticides or herbicides, minimizing waste and environmental impact. The fertilizer deployment mechanism utilizes a rotary disc spreader to ensure accurate and uniform distribution of granular fertilizers across the field. Lastly, the cutting tool is designed for efficient harvesting or pruning of crops, improving overall crop yield and quality. The project aims to address key challenges faced by modern agriculture, such as uneven crop growth, weed infestation, and the need for efficient resource management. By integrating spraying, fertilizer deployment, and cutting functionalities, farmers can streamline their operations, reduce labour requirements, and achieve better control over crop health and productivity.
