MECHANICAL POWER WEEDER- DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT

Abstract

The economical growth of any country is divided in various sectors of the business contributing for the development of the country. Indian economy is hugely dependent on the agricultural sector. The agricultural culture involves the various activities and weed removal is one of the important amongst other crop production activities. The conventional methods are less effective due to manual operations and hence there was the need of producing the weeding machine. The weeding machines have been developed by the researcher’s long back but the problem is with the cost effectiveness of the machines. The cost effective weeding will help the farmers of the countries like us. The machines for weeding will help for the effective working and reduces the efforts of the workers for the task. Authors have presented the design and development of the mechanical weeding machines and its performance from the perspective of utilization in Indian conditions.
