Design and Optimization of a Multi-Purpose Cultivator for Modern Agricultural Applications
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This paper introduces a multi-purpose agriculture cultivator designed to opmized soil preparation, plan ng, and moisture management in diverse farming environments. The proposed system integrates interchangeable tools and adjustable mechanisms, ensuring adaptability to varying soil conditions and crop requirements. Working Mechanism Soil Moisture Detection: The sensor reads moisture levels and sends data to Arduino. Automated Irrigation: If soil is dry, the relay activates the pump to inject water. Seed Plan ng System: Servo motors adjust depth and inject seeds based on soil conditions. Soil Preparation: Motor-driven rota ng blades break soil crust and level the ground. Use Arduino IDE to write code for sensor readings, motor control, and automation logic. Implement IoT connectivity with Node MCU for remote monitoring. Through its automation and modular design, this cultivator aims to enhance operati onal efficiency, reduce labour dependency, and contribute to sustainable farming practices. study evaluates its performance across multiple field conditions, presenting data on its effectiveness in improving productivity, water usage efficiency, and overall crop health.
