Abstract

India Today, agriculture especially in India to concentrate in some situation such as how to increase the productivity and profit how to reduce the cost and labor. The problem faced by farmers who work on small fields while harvesting crops as it takes a lot of time, labor and effect to cut the crops manually. Although harvesting machines are already available in the market but these are quite large and costly. To overcome these problems this project work deals with "design and fabrication of multi crop reaper machine". This machine targets the farmers and small scale land holders who have small land area. It is easy to fabricate, low cost and light weight. It has cutting blades which cut the crop in moving type of motion. A prototype has been developed which is easy to operate and can be used for efficient and effortless harvesting of crops. The model so constructed can be used by small scale famers for increasing their profits by decreasing labor and machinery cost. This model will offer a superior and cheap technique to decrease labor and difficulties in collecting crops. So we decided to design and fabricate the multicrop reaper machine.
