Abstract
One of the agricultural countries in the world is India, where 70
percent population depends on agriculture. Agriculture is a backbone of
Indian Economy as the contribution of agriculture in India has high
national income. While maintaining both the quality and quantity of the
crops for future generations as well as the resources, the farmers met
with the challenge of producing a sufficient amount of crops for the
consumer demand. To meet up the future demands for food and to overcome
the drawbacks of the conventional method, we have developed the seed
sowing machine with automatic sun tracking solar panel and soil testing
process in an automatic manner. The agrobot will move on various ground
contours and it performs digging, sows the seed and covers it with the
soil and an adequate content of water is added according to its texture.
This project also spells out the soil testing process using LabVIEW and
the results are displayed in the mobile phones using GSM module. It
gives the complete installation of the agricultural robot. The method of
sowing seeds with automatic sun tracking solar panel is somewhat
different from the traditional seed sowing method. The main purpose of
the GSM based Agrobot with automatic sun tracking solar panel is to sow
the seeds and monitor the soil's fertility as well as the moisture
automatically.
