ABSTRACT
Many countries in Asia including India are
agrarian economies and most of their rural
populations depend on agriculture to earn
their livelihood. The use of tools and
livestock in the agricultural process has
reduced the human effort. Major factors
that affect agriculture include less holding
area, shortage of seeds, fertilizers and labor
and uncertainty of monsoon. The
mechanization of agriculture refers to the
use of tools or machines in the agricultural
process that potentially reduces the human
efforts.
1. INTRODUCTION
Agriculture plays a very important role in
India’s economy. The need for the
automation in the field of agricultural sector
is mainly due to the increased need of
agricultural products due to increased
population and shortage of labor in the
agricultural sector. The traditional methods
of seed sowing include broad casting,
putting seeds behind the plow, line sowing,
transplanting, dribbling etc. The use of
tractor is most common in the current

agricultural trend. Before the seeding
process is done it is necessary to properly
mix the top layer of the soil with the fertile
bottom layer of the soil which is usually
done by the tractors or animal driven
plough. This requires a lot of energy and
human interaction. Due to the heavy weight
of the tractors the soil will be compacted,
the compacted soil will lose porosity and it
becomes difficult for the seeds to germinate
