INTRODUCTION
The very first "multi utility vehicle" was known as the Brubaker Box. This was a
custom car designed in 1972 and produced in limited numbers by Curtis Brukbaker,
a designer and car enthusiast. It was built on the Volkswagen Beetle chassis and
included an original fiberglass body. There was a sliding door on the passenger-side
of the vehicle.
Agriculture is demographically the broadest economic sector and plays a
significant role in the overall economy of India. For the growth of Indian economy,
mechanization is necessary. The main purpose of mechanization in agriculture is to
improve the overall productivity and production. Planting is conventionally done
manually which involves both animate (humans and draught animals), this result in
higher cost of cultivation and delay in planting. The main purpose of this paper is
to compare between conventional sowing method and new proposed machine which
can perform number of simultaneous operation. The required row to row spacing,
seed rate, seed to seed spacing and fertilizers placement varies from crop to crop can
be achieved by the proposed machine. This machine reduces the power
consumption, sowing time, human efforts and labour cost.

ABSTRACT
The Multipurpose machine is used to sowing the seeds and chemical spray
into land and grass cutting for making lots of plant production in agricultural field.
It is a mechanical device here no electrical or other power source is not required.
The cost of this machine is very low and easy to operate simple in construction. As
there is tremendous development in the field of engineering the current scenario
makes us to find solution for major problems faced by the agricultural field. Lot of
equipment was inverted to sophisticate the work of labor in the farms. The main
objective of this project is to improve the current way of farming by introducing
multipurpose equipment. It helps farmers by grass cutting and sowing the seeds and
fertilizers. We have fabricated a device called “SOLAR OPERATED AUTOMATIC
MULTIULITY AGRO VECHICAL ”. To sow the seeds first land should be cleaned
and after sprayed the seeds the land should be filled. This equipment which we build
will do the mentioned functions automatically. It will be very useful for agricultural
purpose and very simple in construction and economical.
LITERATURE REVIEW
The economic contribution of agriculture in India’s GDP is continuously decreasing
with the country’s broad-based economic growth. Still, agricultural research and
development (R&D) in India has made impressive contribution in the past. But the
system is under significant stress today due to lack of clarity on focus and inefficient
use of financial resources. Links among sister institutions have weakened and
accountability has declined over time. Ramesh D; This research paper present
“Agriculture Seed Sowing Equipment: A Review”. The present review provides
brief information about the various types of innovations in seed sowing equipment.
The basic objective of sowing operation is to put the seed and the fertilizer in rows
at desired depth and seed to seed spacing, cover the seeds with soil and provide
proper compaction over the seed. Kannan A: This research paper presents design
modification in multipurpose sowing machine which describes the sowing purpose
and the import of the machinery, which are bulk in size having more cost. To prevent
this they design multipurpose sowing machine which consists of hopper, seed
metering mechanism, ground wheel, power transmission system, seed distributor,
and tiller Backpack sprayer which can be carried on the operator back, having tank
capacity as large as 20 liters. A hand lever is continuously operated to maintain the
pressure which makes the backpack sprayers output more uniform than that of a
handheld sprayers. Basic low cost backpack sprayer will generate only low pressure
and lack feature such as high-pressure pumps, pressure adjustment control
(regulator) and pressure gauge found on commercial grade units. The engine
operated sprayers typically produce more consistent sprayer’s outputs, covers the
sprays swath more uniformly, operate at constant speed and results in much more
uniform coverage than the hand spraying. Motorized sprayers are also capable of
higher pressure spray useful to provide a better coverage. There are many other types
of hand operated sprayer that are not widely used throughout the agriculture. Some
may be used wide extensively for the productions of specific commodities. Jeremy,
in 2005 designed and fabricated solar charged cutter machine. The machine was
dependent on weather since the battery would be charged using solar panel. The
common drawback was that the engine runs slowly and the production cost was high
for an average individual to purchase. Victor and Vern’s, (2003) designed and
developed a power operated rotary weedier for wet land paddy. The complex nature
of the machine makes its maintenance and operation difficult for the peasant farmers
OBJECTIVES
➢ To design a solar operated multi utility agro vehicle.
➢ To design an intelligent robotic vehicle which can be controlled by remote.
➢ To develop a solar operated digging machine, which is solar powered.
➢ To use a solar panel to capture and convert solar energy into electrical
energy which in turn is used to charge a battery, which then gives the
necessary power to a shunt wound DC motor.
METHODOLOGY
Possible outcomes
These types of solar operated automatic seed sowing machines have a wide range
of applications in the fields like:-
➢ It is applicable in agricultural for seed sowing.
➢ It can be used to spray the fertilizers
