Abstract

Agriculture plays a very important role in human survival. Now - a - days, the availability of manual power has gradually reduced. In order to reduce the manual work power in the field of agriculture, the authors have proposed a model of multi-purpose agricultural robot to perform dropping seeds, monitoring crops, de-weeding, irrigation and pesticide supply. To provide a proper monitoring, the authors have used a technique of the line following robots. This will involve efficient utilization of water resources, intensive plant and soilmonitoring, condition based use of fertilizers and the ability towork in unstructured environments.

Keywords
