DESIGN OF COTTON SEEDS SOWING MACHINE

Abstract

In India most of people are depend upon agriculture for their development of life and for
survive. But in India farmers are still using traditional methods for agricultural activities which
results in too much hard work of farmers. So improvement in agricultural instruments is quite
required. Agricultural activities consist of many different processes like seed sowing, watering,
spraying etc. But most important and quite required operation is seed sowing. The present
methods for seed sowing are difficult to operate and also difficult to handle. So there is need to
improve the methods of operating and handling of seed sowing machine. In our project we tried
to develop a mechanism in which seed drops in a particular position with predetermined distance
between two seeds. In this project we aim to make a sowing machine that puts the seed and
fertilizer in rows at desired depth with a certain seed to seed spacing, cover the seeds with soil
and provide proper compaction over the seed.
