The design and development of a solar-based multipurpose agricultural machine aimed at supporting small to medium-scale farmers. The machine is capable of performing multiple tasks such as tilling, seeding, weeding, and spraying, all powered by solar energy. Solar panels charge a battery system that drives DC motors connected to interchangeable farming tools. The goal of the project is to reduce farmers’ dependency on fossil fuels and manual labor, while promoting eco-friendly agricultural practices. With its modular and lightweight design, the machine is easy to operate, maintain, and transport across different terrains. It is especially suitable for rural areas where access to electricity and modern equipment is limited. Field testing shows significant savings in time, labor, and cost, while maintaining efficiency and productivity. The use of renewable energy makes it an environmentally responsible alternative to traditional fuel-based machinery. Additionally, the design allows for future upgrades, including automation or smart sensors for precision agriculture. Overall, the solar-based multipurpose agricultural machine offers a practical, sustainable, and cost-effective solution to modern farming challenges, especially in energy-scarce regions. This innovation contributes to cleaner farming methods and supports the shift toward renewable energy in agriculture.
