Abstract: This abstract presents the development of a multipurpose electric farm vehicle designed to address key challenges in Indian agriculture, including low mechanization, labour shortages, and high operational costs. The vehicle integrates multiple functions such as seed sowing, ploughing, and water sprinkling to enhance efficiency, reduce manual labour, and lower overall costs. The proposed solution uses electric power to minimize environmental impact and operational costs, offering an eco-friendly alternative to traditional fossil-fuel machinery. It aims to improve productivity for small-scale farmers, making advanced agricultural technology more accessible, sustainable, and cost-effective. This innovation also holds potential for future automation and further mechanization in farming practices. The multi-purpose agricultural vehicle is designed for small farmers in India, powered by solar energy. It performs tasks like seed sowing, water spraying, and ploughing, using a DC motor, and efficient gear mechanisms. The vehicle reduces labour, increases productivity, and is cost-effective for small-scale farming. A multipurpose agricultural vehicle has been designed to perform tasks like pesticide spraying, ploughing, and goods carrying.
