Modeling of Solar Based Paddy Harvesting Machine

Abstract

Uses of solar energy attract world-wide attention day by day in the sake of their nonpolluting nature. Now a day’s solar collectors are used in the modern world to face the future energy problem. The main purpose of our Project is to help smallscale farmers who having land area less than 5 bigha by designing small scale harvester machine to harvest grains very efficiently. Our project work will focus on ease of harvesting operation to the small-scale farmers for harvesting varieties of grain in less time and at low cost by considering different factors such as cost of equipment, ease of operation, time of operation and climatic conditions. The power is generated from solar panel and stored in battery. The power from the battery is supply to the motor and the motor is running and cut the paddy. This harvester might be the best solution for the problems faced by small scale farmers relating with availability of labors and cost of harvesting.
